Explanations Notes Related to Summer Time The VR-509 makes use of Time Zone to perform automatic switching for Summer Time and Winter Time. * The starting/ending time of Summer Time may differ from the actual time in your local area. 1. Changing the Time Zone After changing the Time Zone during operations, make sure to format all the hard disks. If the hard disk is not formatted after changing the Time Zone, the following problems will arise.
Explanations Recording Duration Actual recording duration varies according to the input image as well as hard disk conditions. The table below is an example of detailed images (eg. in a convenience store) that illustrates the recording duration based on different modes of recording quality. Refer to the following table when recording detailed images.

Explanations DVD Recording Time The following charts provide guidelines to the recording time for one channel that can be recorded onto a single DVD. The charts are listed by export format. The conditions for all of these are as follows: Tie Date Recording: No Audio: Yes (however, audio will not be recorded for 0.2ips or 0.08ips.) The following charts have been created under the assumption that only one channel will be used.
Explanations Time Required for DVD Exporting The following chart provides guidelines to the amount of time required for exporting one hour’s worth of recorded data for a single channel in the self-playing + DVD-Video (OPT) format.
