Recommended Tips for System Setup - Appendix #5

Formatting the Hard Drive

Formatting the hard drive after changing the date, and before beginning the recording of YOUR

data is recommended, as the system is set to Automatically start recording when powered on

(continuous recording setting).

NOTE: Formatting the Hard Drive will erase any previously recorded data. This will NOT

affect your system configurations.

1. Enter MENU mode by pressing the MENU button on the front panel of the system, on

the Remote Control or Mouse Menu.

Select the SYSTEM SETUP Option.

2. Select the DISK MANAGEMENT menu

from the MAIN menu. Navigate using the

up and down arrows on the front panel (or

remote control). Highlight the selection in

Green, and press the ENTER button to

enter the DISK MANAGEMENT Menu.

3. Navigate to the Format Option, and select

the Start button.

• Once OK is selected, the user will be prompted

to enter the ADMIN PASSWORD. Once the

password is accepted, all Hard Drive data will

be erased.

• A warning message will be displayed

with the prompt ‘All Recorded Data will

be erased.’

• Select OK to erase the data, or

CANCEL to return without erasing the

Hard Drive.
