Recording area reset
If the OVERWRITE setting is "OFF", recording will stop
automatically when a recording area becomes full. If when
[AREA FULL RESET] has been selected, the recordings that
have been made will be deleted and recording will begin
again from the start of the recording area.
If the recording capacity for the normal recording
area and the alarm recording area have been set to
0% and if the OVERWRITE setting is " OFF" , there is
no need to use the reset function, and so the AREA
FULL RESET button will not appear on the screen at
such times.
