• Do not directly edit recorded video data in the shared storage folder. If a file is directly edited, the surveillance
camera may no longer operate properly.
• Do not duplicate or back up the recorded videos with the backup or replication functions in the TeraStation's
Settings. A separate backup license must be purchased to back up this data to another TeraStation.
• The client tools can only be used with the LAN connected to the selected LAN port.
• Failover and surveillance cameras are not compatible. Therefore surveillance cameras cannot be used if failover is
configured. Conversely, failover cannot be used if surveillance camera functionality is enabled.
Use with Two or More Network Cameras
In the default settings, only one network camera can be used. To use two or more network cameras, additional
licenses (sold separately) must be purchased and registered. For more details to add licenses and registration, see
the "Activating Additional Licenses" section.
