Recording Operation During Power Failure
If a power failure occurs during recording, the system resumes
recording in the mode selected before the power failure after
recovery.
● In the recording control mode, recording by a motion or event
does not resume unless another motion or event occurs after
recovery from the power failure.
● The recording control mode returns to the status before the
power failure.
Note :
● The recorded images may not be played back properly if they
are not archived (A Page 108) before the power failure.
● It is recommended that an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
be used to protect the hard disk from damage in the event of a
power failure. (A Page 132)
● If a power failure occurs while formatting a hard disk or
archiving, subsequent operations may be affected even when a
UPS is connected.
