Replacing Backup Hdd - Furuno VR-3000 Operator's Manual

2.6 Replacing Backup HDD

On some vessels several backup HDDs (Type: VR-3011-A, Code No.:001-173-390, Option) are
carried onboard, replacing one when it is necessary to transport it from the vessel for playback
and extract.
A backup HDD may only be replaced in the follow situations:
1) When the equipment can be powered off; for example, maintenance while in port, etc.
2) An incident has occurred and the Save button on the RAP (VR-3016) was operated to stop
recording.
An HDD may not be re-used for recording after the Save button has been operated four times.
Contact a FURUNO dealer for further details.
A backup HDD records navigation data for more than past 12 hours (48 hours max). For longer
recording, use Live Player V4.
