1. Computer model
<PC/AT compatible machine> The computer should meet the above specifications. The recommended computers are
the following models that accept a half-size (106.7 mmx 174.6 mm) PCI interface board.
Note that some of the following models may not accept such a board due to the internal structures.
DELL R : Prevision Series, Dimension Series, OptiPlex Series.
IBM (Lenovo) : Think Centre Series.
HP : dx Series, xw Series.
2. CPU
We do not guarantee operation if the computer uses a CPU other than Pentium 4, Pentium D, Pentium Extreme Edition or
a chipset other than an Intel chipset.
If the computer uses a CPU other than a Hyper-Threading CPU, the movie frame rate may drop.
3. HD free space
The HD free space refers to the space that does not cause a special problem even when the system is installed or run.
The space required for saving an image file in the HDD is slightly more than 4 MB with a 1360 x 1024-pixel (24-bit) non-
compressed image and slightly more than 38 MB with a 4080 x 3072-pixel (24-bit) non-compressed image. In consequence,
the HDD should also provide a considerably large space for saving these image files.
When saving movies in the HDD stack, the space required for saving a movie is about 20 MB (max.) per second. The
movie recording time is limited according to the HD free space.
4. RAM
If a RAM other than a PC2700 or after, dual-channel DDR/DDR2 RAM is used, the movie frame rate may drop.
5. Monitor
It is recommended to use a monitor capable of 1280 x 1024 or more full-color display.
6. Sequential connection of PCI units
Up to two PCI units including the DP71 and a PCI interface board of the DP70/DP30BW or FV series can be connected
in series. However, their simultaneous operation is not available so it is required to select either PCI interface operation.
