Editing a Partition
The
Edit partition
window provides an overview of the current partition configuration, which
can be modified at any time. All modifications result in the reorganization of the partition and
all sequences stored are lost. It is recommended to back up all important sequences before
modifying the partition.
The unit uses a special recording mode during alarm recording for optimal usage of storage
capacity: as soon as a time gap for alarm recording begins, a recording is continuously made
on one segment, which is the size of a complete alarm sequence (pre- and post-alarm time).
This segment in the partition functions in a similar manner to a ring buffer and is overwritten
until an alarm is actually triggered. Recording occurs on the segment only for the duration of
the preset post-alarm time and a new segment is subsequently used in the same manner.

1.
