During this time, the UniRec checks the file format on the Pen Drive and also searches for existence of
Set.txt
file (file
containing channel names) and any interrupted file-write operation in the previous operation. The message may last for 5
to 60 seconds depending upon the disc size and occupancy percentage.
In case of any error in reading the Pen Drive or if the Pen Drive does not respond for more than 60 seconds, the following
message is displayed:
Device Failure
Ensure proper insertion of the Pen Drive into the USB port and acknowledge the message by pressing front panel ENTER
key. The UniRec repeats the device checking operation. If the error persists; remove the Pen Drive from the port and
acknowledge the message (using ENTER key). The UniRec responds with the following message:
Insert Drive
Acknowledge the message to revert to normal RUN mode operation or insert a new Pen Drive and then acknowledge the
message to continue with file read/write operations.
Select Operation
If the “Pen Drive checking” operation is successful; the UniRec presents one or more of the following options for the next
operation:
Recover
Read Chan Names
Copy (New)
Re-copy (Old)
The option 'Recover' is presented only if the inserted Pen Drive contains an interrupted write-operation file. In this case,
the 'Copy (New)' and 'Re-copy (Old) ' options are not presented.
The 'Read Chan Names' option is presented only if the inserted Pen Drive contains a file with the name
Set.txt
.
The 'Copy (New)' option is presented only if there are new records available in the internal memory and the 'Recover'
option is not presented.
The 'Re-copy (Old)' option is presented only if there are old records available in the internal memory and the 'Recover'
option is not presented.
Use UP/DOWN keys to select the desired option and then press ENTER key for the execution of the operation.
Recover, Copy & Re-copy Operations (New) (Old)
The ‘Recover', 'Copy (New)' & 'Re-copy (Old)’ options are similar in operations as they all download (copy) records
available in the internal memory onto the inserted Pen Drive. The difference lies in the set of records that is downloaded.
The 'Copy (New)' operation downloads the records that are not yet downloaded even once, that is, “new” records. After
successfully downloading the “new” records, the UniRec retains this set of records as “old” records until next successful
'Copy (New)' operation is executed.
The 'Re-Copy (Old)' operation downloads the set of records that were successfully copied during last 'Copy (New)'
operation and thus retained as “old” records. This feature allows re-gaining the copied records in case of the Pen Drive
failure / malfuncting after copying records or inadvertent deletion of the record file from the Pen Drive.
