Salvaging storage when recording ends
abnormally
When recording ends and the signal bar stops flashing in
blue, set the POWER switch on the front panel off to finish
operation of the unit. Recording will not end normally if the
power switch is turned off or the power cord is
disconnected during recording. If this happens, the file
system will not be updated and the video/audio data that
was recorded in real time will not be recognized as a file,
resulting in the content of the file that was recorded being
lost.
The unit is equipped with a function (salvage function) for
restoring the data in memory with minimal loss. The
salvage function allows the file to be restored based on
marker and other information recorded to memory.
The salvage process can take a few seconds or up to 10
minutes, depending on the state of the memory when the
recording was interrupted.
Notes
• Before disconnecting the power cord on the connector
panel, switch the unit off using the POWER switch on the
front panel.
• The salvage function is designed to salvage as much
recorded material as possible in the event that an
unforeseen accident occurs, but there is no guarantee
that 100% of the data will be restored.
• Data immediately before recording was interrupted
cannot be restored even if you execute this function.
Approximately one second of data prior to the
interruption is lost.
• A dialog prompting you to salvage or format is displayed
each time you turn the power on if there are files that
have not been restored.
• Recording and playback cannot be performed if files have
not been restored.
• Formatting memory will immediately enable you to use it
again as storage, but all recorded data will be lost.

of the web menu.
• Even if data is successfully restored after a salvage, it is
recommended that you transfer files you want to keep to
external network storage or run playback to copy the files
to other media, and then reformat the memory.
