DTL-960e Single Colour Channel Digital Video Recorder
DISK OVERWRITE MODE
The
Disk Overwrite Mode
menu item is used to specify how the unit will handle disk overwrite issues once the hard disk
becomes full. The DTL-960e can handle disk overwrite issues in three ways:
No Overwrite.
Overwrite Once.
Continuous Overwrite.
No Overwrite
When No Overwrite mode is selected, the DTL-960e will
function as follows:
Recording always starts at end of last recording.
Recording stops when end of disk is reached (when disk
is full).
When the end of the disk is reached, the unit displays an
on-screen message indicating that the disk is full, and
the unit has stopped recording. User must acknowledge
the on-screen message by pressing the
Enter
button.
The DTL-960e will not record over previously recorded
data. To continue recording, the data must be erased (or
deleted). See page 30 for details on how to do this.
Overwrite Once
When Overwrite Once mode is selected, the DTL-960e will
function as follows:
Recording always starts at end of last recording.
The unit overwrites all previously recorded data.
Recording stops before the unit overwrites any of the new
recorded data (data from the current record session).
When the end of the disk is reached, the unit displays an
on-screen message indicating that the disk is full, and
the unit has stopped recording. User must acknowledge
the on-screen message by pressing the
Enter
button.
The unit will continue recording again when the user
presses the
Record
button.
