• NOT Rec, Full, Fault

• NOT Recording
• Media Full
• Fault
• Playing
• None
NOT Recording
is a catchall situation. If the unit is not recording for any reason,
even if it is been deliberately stopped, the relay will close. This is
useful if the unit is configured to continue recording regardless of
exogenous circumstances. Note that the “media almost full”
condition that sounds the beep alarm is not included in this
definition.
Media Full
is analogous to the beep alarm. The relay will close when the
media reaches the almost-full point and will remain closed until
either a new media is inserted and started, or the media currently
recording runs out.
Fault
closes the relay only when the VR240 software detects that there
is some problem with the unit, such as a defective drive. “Full
media” is not considered a fault.
Playing
allows the relay to be used for dubbing. If you connect it to the
motor control input of a cassette or other recorder, it will activate
the recording only when the VR240 media is playing.
None
means that the relay will not close under any condition (except loss
of power).
