Basic Settings
This section allows you to set basic functionality for your hard
drives.
At the top is a table showing all of the hard drives on your network,
their availability to the recorder, as well as other data that may be of
interest. You can click on any hard drive to change its properties, or
click multiples for a group edit.
R/W , or read-write, is the standard mode of operation. The recorder
can use this hard drive normally to record surveillance.
Read-only means the drive is an archive. The recorder can access
files stored on that drive, but cannot write files on that drive. Thus
files on that drive are protected against being overwritten. In order
to add files to an archive drive, you must either change it briefly
to read/write, or use some network method to back up files to this
drive.
Redundancy makes the drive an automatic backup drive. The
system automatically makes a copy of everything it records and
saves it onto the redundant drive.
When you press Set , the changes that you have specified are made.
From this window, you can also initialize the hard drives. To do so,
select them either individually or with the Select All box, and then
press
Format .
Caution: This removes all data from all selected hard drives, and
cannot be undone!
