2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS  
The supplied power supply cord is designed for exclusive use with the Digital Video Recorder. Never use it  
with other equipment.  
Do not connect the10BASE-T/100BASE-TX terminal, Hard disk expansion unit connection terminal or  
Remote control I/O terminal A to networks that could be exposed to excessive electrical voltage. Failure to  
follow this instruction could result in electric shock or fire.  
It is recommended that the Recorder be always used in locations where the ambient temperature ranges  
from +5°C to +40°C (41°F to 104°F) and humidity levels of less than 80% to ensure that no condensation is  
formed.  
When moving the Recorder, first disconnect its power supply plug from the AC outlet and then wait at least  
30 seconds before moving.  
Avoid moving the Recorder suddenly from a cold location to a warm location, or installing it in close  
proximity to an air-conditioner outlet, as internal condensation could result. When condensation occurs, do  
not switch on the power until the Recorder has sufficiently dried. Also, when brought into a warm room from  
the cold outdoors, be sure to leave it unused for at least half a day before using it.  
Avoid installing the Recorder in humid or dusty locations, or in locations exposed to direct sunlight, sooty  
smoke or steam. Note that even in locations which are not particularly dusty, dust may accumulate at the  
Recorder’s ventilation slots. Because this could cause an extreme rise in temperature inside the Recorder,  
be sure to clean the ventilation slots periodically after switching off the power and disconnecting the power  
supply plug from the AC outlet. It is highly recommended that the ventilation slots be cleaned once a year.  
When cleaning the Recorder, be sure to switch off the power. Wipe with a soft dry cloth. If it gets very dirty,  
use the soft cloth slightly moistened in neutral cleanser. Never use volatile spirits like thinner, benzine, or  
alcohol. Such chemicals may damage its plastic surface.  
Do not block the ventilation slots or cooling fan, which could cause the temperature inside the Recorder to  
rise, possibly resulting in unit failure. Install the Recorder at least 100 mm (3.9 inch) away from the nearest  
wall surface.  
Since the Recorder is equipped with a cooling fan, a motor sound is generated. Avoid installing the Digital  
Video Recorder in locations which resonate electrical motor noise.  
Do not install the Recorder in locations influenced by strong electrical or magnetic fields, as monitor screen  
pictures may become distorted or the Recorder could fail.  
The Recorder can be used only in a commercial and industrial area. Operation of this equipment in a  
residential area is likely to cause radio disturbance and TV interference.  
Avoid jarring or striking the Recorder. The Recorder is a piece of precision equipment and accidentally  
dropping it or subjecting it to strong impacts could cause its failure. When transporting the Recorder,  
carefully pack it in the supplied carton to protect it from shock.  
Avoid using the Recorder in locations exposed to vibration. The Recorder is a piece of precision equipment,  
as this may cause the unit malfunction.  
Avoid installing the Recorder vertically or tilting it at extreme angles, since it is designed to be used in a  
horizontal position only.  
About the hard disks  
• If the hard disk fails, recorded data cannot be restored.  
• Save important recordings to DVD-R/RW disks.  
• Recordings copied from video images or video recordings with registered copyrights may not be used for  
commercial purposes other than for private use without express permission from the copyright holder.

8. RACK MOUNTING  
Use the optional MB-23B Rack Mounting Bracket when mounting the Digital Video Recorder in an equipment  
rack. Remove 4 rubber feet on the bottom surface by loosening their respective fixing screws with a standard  
screwdriver.  
C-DR091 Series  
C-DR161 Series  
M4 x 12 binding head screw  
(supplied with the MB-23B)  
M5 x 12 binding head screw  
MB-23B (optional)  
(supplied with the MB-23B)  
M5 fiber washer  
(supplied with the MB-23B)  
Note  
• Use the Digital Video Recorder in locations with ambient temperature of between +5°C and +40°C (41°F and  
104°F). When rack-mounting the Digital Video Recorder, the ambient temperature must be kept 35°C (95°F)  
or below.  
• Be sure to mount the Digital Video Recorder below the heat generating components, and mount the  
perforated panel between the Recorder and such a heat generating component as required.  
• The Digital Video Recorder has a built-in cooling fan. Never block the Recorder’s ventilation slot.  
• Avoid installing the Digital Video Recorder in locations exposed to vibration.  
a) Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating  
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration  
should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer's maximum  
rated ambient temperature (Tmra).  
b) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow  
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.  
c) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is  
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.  
d) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit  
and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.  
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.  
e) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention  
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power  
strips).

To synchronize the times of slave units with the time of the master unit, connect the slave units to the master  
unit in a series via their input and output terminals. In other words, connect the input of slave number 1 to the  
master unit’s output and the input of slave number 2 to slave number 1’s output, and so on.  
10.4. 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Terminal Connections  
Use this terminal to remotely monitor or control cameras connected to the Digital Video Recorder, or search or  
play back their recorded images on a PC web browser. When connecting a PC directly to the Digital Video  
Recorder, use a network crossover cable. Use the straight-through cable for connection between them via a  
switching hub.

15. RECORDING  
15.1. Before Recording  
Auto-recordings are normally performed according to the preprogrammed schedule. Operations to start  
recording such as pressing the key are not required. You can also make recording by pressing the Priority  
Recording key outside the scheduled time period. Perform disk mode and overwrite settings before recording.  
15.1.1. Disk mode  
Normal and mirror modes are available to this mode. For models with a single hard disk (versions with a  
model number suffix -08, -1, D08 or D1), Mirror settings are available only when the hard disk expansion unit  
is connected. (Refer to p. 101; Equipment maintenance.)  
Notes  
• When the disk mode is changed, the hard disk is initialized, causing the recorded images to be erased. Be  
sure to determine the disk mode before use.  
• Unless the disk mode setting is performed, mirror recording cannot be performed as the hard disk is factory-  
preset to normal mode.  
Normal mode:  
When the first hard disk finishes recording, the second hard disk automatically begins to  
record. When the settings (recording rate and picture quality) of both normal and mirror  
modes are set to be identical, the recording time for normal mode is about twice that of  
mirror mode. The total recording rate is 120 IPS maximum.  
Mirror mode:  
The same image is simultaneously recorded on both hard disks. Even if one of the two  
hard disks fails, the other hard disk continues to record, allowing all recorded images to be  
played back. The total recording rate is 60 IPS maximum. Set the disk mode to Mirror  
when performing mirroring by the two built-in hard disks or when performing mirroring by  
the built-in hard disk and the hard disk expansion unit.  
15.1.2. Recording order to hard disks  
Recordings to the built-in hard disks are performed in the following order.  
Normal mode  
Mirror mode  
One hard disk  
One hard disk  
Two hard disks  
Two hard disks  
HDD A  
HDD A  
HDD A  
HDD B  
HDD A

Note  
For the recording operation when the expansion unit is connected, refer to the instruction manual enclosed  
with the expansion unit.

15.1.3. Disk recording mode  
Overwriting of hard disk recordings can be set to Overwrite or Write Protect. (Refer to p. 76; Recording  
Settings.)  
Overwrite:  
When all hard disks become full, previous recorded older data is automatically deleted and  
replaced with newer data.  
Write Protect: When all hard disks become full, recording is stopped. To begin recording again, initialize the  
hard disk and reactivate the Digital Video Recorder, or set the disk-recording mode to  
"Overwrite."  
15.2. Recording Mode  
The following recording modes are available to the Digital Video Recorder. Priorities are 1, 2 and 3 in that  
order.  
Recording mode  
Priority Recording 1  
Auto-recording  
Alarm event recording 2  
Normal recording 3  
Alarm-input recording  
Motion-detected recording  
(operation according  
to the schedule)  
Pre-Alarm recording  
(operates only in recording stop mode)  
15.3. Priority Recording  
Priority recording is given higher priority over Auto-recording. Use this recording mode to check recording  
details when, for example, a suspicious person intrudes or when making recording outside the scheduled time  
period. In the Priority Recording settings, the following settings can be made for individual cameras: recording  
ON/OFF, recording rate, picture quality and audio ON/OFF. (Refer to p. 77; Priority Recording setting.)  
15.3.1. How to perform priority recording  
1. Press the Priority Recording key to start the priority recording. To stop a buzzer sound, press the Buzzer  
Stop key.  
2. Hold down the Priority Recording key for 2 seconds or more to terminate the priority recording.  
Notes  
Priority recording can be started by any of the following ways.  
• Input the signal to the Priority recording input terminal on the rear panel.  
• Press the Remote Controller's Priority Recording key.  
39  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
15.4. Auto Recording (Alarm Event Recording and Normal Recording)  
With auto-recording, recordings are made according to a preset schedule, which can include up to twelve  
different programs. If one or more programs have duplicate execution times, the program with a largest  
number takes precedence. Settable items for each program include: Day of the Week; Start/End Times; and  
Operation. Up to six settings groups, named A through F, can be made for “Operation,” and recording settings  
for Normal and Alarm recording can also be registered. Further, up to sixty “special day” operational settings  
can also be made, with operation controlled by different programs, motion detection areas for individual  
cameras, and audio recording during auto- recording. (Refer to p. 79; Auto-Recording Settings.)  
Notes  
• If the Alarm display interval is set to "0" second, no full-screen display is performed and the current display  
status is maintained.  
• If an alarm event occurs outside the scheduled time period, Alarm Event recording is not performed.  
15.4.1. Alarm event recording  
Alarm Event recording includes both “Alarm Input” and “Motion Detection” recording. For Alarm Event  
recording, settable items for each individual camera include: Recording ON/OFF; Recording Rate; and Picture  
Quality. It is also possible to set, for each recording mode, the type of events that will cause recording to  
begin. (Refer to p. 82; Alarm Event Recording Setting.)  
For Alarm Event recording mode, it is possible to set the type of recording operation to be performed when  
multiple events have occurred simultaneously. Setting the mode to “Sequence” allows two or more events to  
be set for individual cameras. For Alarm Input recording time, set both alarm input mode and post alarm time  
intervals. For Motion Detection, set both motion detection mode and post-motion alarm time. (Refer to p. 80;  
Setting of groups A-F.)  
When an alarm event occurs, the corresponding camera’s image is switched to full-screen display until the  
preset alarm time interval has elapsed, after which the display reverts to the original screen display. (Refer to  
p. 86; Screen Display Setting.)  
Alarm input recording:  
Alarm Input recording begins when signals are received at the alarm input  
terminal on the rear panel. Use Event settings to link cameras that are to have  
their images recorded and alarm input terminal. If “Sequence” is selected, up to  
four alarm input terminals can be set optionally per camera. If “Last” is  
selected, the “Alarm ON/OFF” can be set only for the alarm input terminal with  
a number corresponding to that of the camera.  
Motion detected recording: Motion Detection recording begins when motion is detected in a camera image.  
Use Motion Settings to set the motion detection area, sensitivity, and activation.  
Use Event settings to link cameras that are to have their images recorded and  
cameras that are to use motion detection. If “Sequence” is selected as the  
alarm event recording mode, then up to four alarm input terminals can be set  
optionally per camera. If “Last” is selected, the “Alarm ON/OFF” can be set only  
for the alarm input terminal with a number corresponding to that of the camera.  
40

15.4.2. Normal recording  
This function automatically records camera images set by schedule. For Normal recording, settable items for  
each individual camera include: Recording ON/OFF; Recording Rate; and Picture Quality. (Refer to p. 81;  
Normal Recording setting.) Recordings can be made on scheduled patterns like "day and night," and  
"weekdays and holidays” by combining two or more programs.  
15.5. Pre-Recording  
This function records images immediately before Priority recording or Alarm Event recording is initiated.  
Setting the Pre-Recording interval to 1 second or more allows Pre-Recording to be performed. In Pre-  
Recording, the recording rate and picture quality cannot be individually set for each camera. Instead,  
recording rate, picture quality, and audio ON/OFF settings are common to all connected cameras. The  
maximum recording rate per camera is 4 IPS. (Refer to p. 85; Pre-Recording setting.)  
Pre-Recording can be performed under the following conditions.  
• When Priority recording begins while recording is stopped.  
• When an alarm event occurs and alarm even recording begins while a schedule in which Normal Recording  
is not available but Alarm Event Recording is available is in operation.  
Note: Pre-Recording cannot be performed during Normal Recording.  
15.6. Recording State  
The Digital Video Recorder permits recordings to be set to best meet user requirements.  
Recording within a scheduled time period  
[ Auto recording (Normal recording) ]  
Recording is performed as shown in the following figure when set to always automatically record (Normal

• Pre-recording only functions when recording is stopped. It cannot be used when recording is in progress.  
• If the Priority Recording Key on the Digital Video Recorder or remote controller is used to start recording  
when Priority Recording Input mode is set to "Level," then priority recording continues until it is manually  
stopped.  
15.8. Picture Quality  
Picture quality can be set at any of five different levels for each recording mode and camera. File sizes for  
each picture quality are shown below.

15.9. Recording Rate  
The recording rate indicates the number of images to be recorded per second and is expressed by the unit  
IPS (Image Per Second). In the Digital Video Recorder, the total recording rate is the sum of each camera’s  
recording rate and recordings can be made for up to 120 IPS in normal mode and for up to 60 IPS in mirror  
recording mode. The maximum recording rate that can be set per camera is 60 IPS.  
The recording rate to be set on the menu screen is displayed, rounded up. The following table shows the  
relationship of menu screen display vs. actual recording rate.

The total recording rate is calculated by the actual recording rate in the above table. If, for example, each of  
16 cameras is set to a menu screen display value of 8 IPS, the total recording rate is 120 IPS since the actual  
per-unit recording rate is 7.5 IPS.  
Also, if a recording rate of 1/2 IPS or less (1/2  
of 0.937500.  
-1/60) is designated, the total rate is calculated using the rate  
15.10. Recording time  
Recording time varies depending on the settings described below.  
For recording time, refer to p. 116, "Recording timetable" as a guide.  
• HDD Capacity (80 GB - 600 GB)  
• Recording rate (60 - 1/60)  
• Picture quality (1 - 5)  
• Audio (ON/OFF)  
15.11. Available Disk Time and Operation  
When disk recording mode is set to “Overwrite,” the available time indication is not displayed and the disk  
space indicator does not light. In “Write Protect” mode, when the remaining time is shorter than the preset  
remaining warning time, the disk space indicator lights and recording is stopped.

18. ARCHIVE  
The Digital Video Recorder is equipped with an archive function that transfers image data recorded on the  
hard disk to DVD-R/RW disk (available only to models with DVD drives) or USB memory. Camera image data  
designated between start position and end position can be archived. Since dedicated viewer software is also  
downloaded at the same time, archived images can be easily played back on a PC.  
Note  
Archive operation can be performed only at the operation level 1. When the security has been set, perform  
archive operation after login to the Operation Level 1.  
Two methods can be used to designate the archiving range.  
• Designate the archiving range after entering date and time.  
•Designate the archiving range while viewing the playback image.  
[ Archiving to USB memory devices ]  
Notes  
• Connect the USB memory device to the copy terminal of the Digital Video Recorder.  
• Only mass storage class devices (those recognized as "USB mass storage memory devices" under  
Windows 2000/XP) can be used.  
• Compatible with USB 1.1 devices only. Not compatible with USB 2.0 devices.  
• USB memory devices formatted with FAT12/FAT16 can only be used.  
• It is not possible to play back video files copied to the USB memory device on the Digital Video Recorder.  
Connect the USB device to a PC and use viewer software to play back files.  
• If USB memory is removed when USB archive is in progress, the Digital Video Recorder will then be unable  
to recognize USB memory. Be sure to remove it after finishing archiving or after archive operation is  
stopped.  
[ Archiving to DVD media (models with DVD drives only) ]  
Notes  
• Usable media: DVD-R, DVD-RW  
Unusable media: DVD-R DL, DVD+R/RW, DVD+R DL, and DVD-RAM  
• Data cannot be added to DVD media after the initial copying. If using a DVD-RW, first erase any existing  
data on the disc before using it. (This must be done on a PC and cannot be done on the Digital Video  
Recorder.)  
• It is not possible to play back video files copied to a DVD on the main unit. Insert the DVD in the drive of a  
compatible computer and use viewer software to play back files.  
• Do not play DVDs copied on the Digital Video Recorder in a standard DVD player as doing so risks  
damaging the DVD player.  
• Playback cannot be performed on a PC if the power is turned off during DVD archiving, as archiving is not  
complete, making it impossible to recognize DVD media.

18.4.4. About error messages  
The following error messages are displayed if an error should occur during archiving:  
• Terminated for lack of available media space.  
This message is displayed when the data size to be archived exceeds the destination media capacity and  
shows that the archiving is aborted, as the media is full with data already written. To continue archiving,  
insert a new media and perform archiving again.  
• Transfer error has been detected.  
This message is displayed if archiving media is not inserted or connected. Ensure that the media is correctly  
inserted or connected.  
If the inserted disk already has included data, the transfer error message is displayed. In such cases,  
replace it with a new disk.  
• Start and end positions not correctly set.  
This message is displayed when the times of start and end positions are entered in reverse order. Reset  
correctly.  
• Nothing found.  
Displayed when the time that no recording data exists is designated or when no existing camera is  
designated.

18.5.2. Folder Configuration and File Name  
Notes  
Folder name or file name at the time of DVD archiving is referenced in Time zone setting (Refer to p.90,  
Network Setting.). Folder name or file name is displayed correctly only when time zone setting has been  
performed correctly.  
• Folder name or file name is to be created at standard time when recording data during summer time period  
is archived. To replace it with summer time indication, advance 1 hour.  
• The name of the viewer software will differ depending on which type of media is being archived to.  
For USB memory devices the name will be "VIEWER.EXE".  
For DVD media the name will be "ResizeViewer.exe".

Folders numbered by date  
Folders numbered  
by camera  
CAMERA 01  
Special Viewer Software:  
This software is downloaded to the target media during archiving. Its functions include resizing copied videos,  
continuous or frame advance playback, and tampering/alteration check.  
Folders Numbered by Archiving Session:  
It is possible to divide archived data into folders by designating multiple start and end times when archiving.  
When adding new files to USB memory devices, the new folders are numbered starting by automatically  
adding 1 to the largest existing folder number. Folder numbers are from 0001 to 9999.  
Folders Numbered by Date:  
A separate folder is created for each copy session with a different date, with each folder name shown as a set  
of numbers indicating "YEAR MONTH DAY". For example, a folder named "06 07 20" refers to a folder  
created on July 20th, 2006.  
Folders Numbered by Camera:  
A separate folder can be created for each camera number. If there are nine cameras, for example, then these  
folders will be numbered 01 through 09 (or 01 through 16 if there are 16 cameras), with JPEG files stored  
therein.  
File Names:  
File names are comprised of “HOUR MINUTE SECOND, SCREEN NUMBER”. HOUR is from 00–23. MINUTE  
is from 0–59. SECOND is from 0–59. SCREEN NUMBER, from 01–60, differentiates frames taken at the  
same time. (The number of frames will vary depending on the recording rate set for each camera.) The  
extension on all file names is .jpg.  
For example, a file named "13 05 49 08.jpg" refers to file created as the 8th frame taken at the time 13:05:49.

19. ABOUT SECURITY SETTING  
Each level of security settings can be made for each operation or setting of the Digital Video Recorder. The  
following three types of security methods are available.  
1. Secure the Digital Video Recorder's operating keys.  
2. Secure against external remote access.  
3. Secure against web access  
Using the above security methods in combination allows a higher level of security than using any one method  
alone. The following describes the various available security functions.  
19.1. Securing the Digital Video Recorder's Operating Keys  
Security can be set at any of four operating levels (1, 2, 3 or Full-lock) using a six-digit password and USB  
key. Permissions can be allowed or disallowed for each operating level, as shown in the table below.

gives access to Operation Level 1 from any other operation level.  
Operation Level 2 Live and recorded images can be monitored, however setting changes and archiving cannot be  
operated. Entering the corresponding password gives access to Operation Level 2.  
Operation Level 3 Only recorded images can be monitored. The Priority Recording key can be used if settings are  
performed(*1). Entering the corresponding password gives access to Operation Level 3.  
No operation possible. If Operation Level 3 is valid (Password 3 has been set), the system  
automatically switches to “Full-Lock” mode when the user logs out of Operation Level 3 or when the  
log-out interval elapses.  
Full-Lock  
Log-Out Time  
Can be set to 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes or OFF.  
If no operations areꢀperformed for a pre-set period of time after log-in, the systemꢀautomatically logs  
out, moving to the lowest set operation level.  
[Example] When Operation Levels 1 and 2 are valid (Passwords 1 and 2 have been set),  
the operation level after log-out is Level 3.  
Priority recording Selecting ON permits the Priority Recording key to be used even when Operation Level 3 is valid.

If OFF is selected, the Priority Recording key cannot be used when Operation Level 3 is valid.  
Regardless of this ON/ OFF setting, the Priority Recording key can always be used at Operation  
Levels 1 and 2, and cannot be used when in Full-Lock mode.  
(Factory-preset to OFF.)  
(*1) Whether or not to make the Priority Recording key usable at Operation Level 3 can be set in the “Priority Recording  
Operation Level 3” settings.  
(*2) The camera menu cannot be displayed on the full screen.

If the expansion unit’s disk drive malfunctions:  
• Check the connection cables, pulling them out and re-inserting them into their sockets.  
• Restart the expansion unit, then restart the Digital Video Recorder's power supply.  
Note  
If the drive is restored by restarting the power, then some of the recorded data may be lost. Copy any nece-  
ssary data to another location and initialize the disk.  
• If the error persists even after restarting the power, then initialize the disk.  
Note  
Initializing the disk will cause all video and other data stored on it to be erased. If any of the data on the disk  
is needed, be sure to copy it to another location before initializing the disk.  
• If the error persists even after the disk has been initialized, then it is necessary to replace the hard disk  
drive. Consult your TOA dealer for more information.  
20.3. Video Loss  
Video loss occurs when the camera has become disconnected from the camera input terminal. The camera  
input number and the date and time at which the video loss has occurred can be confirmed in the error log.  
Note  
Video loss will not occur for cameras for which Priority recording and Auto-Recoding has been set to "No,"  
even if they are disconnected.  
20.3.1. If video loss occurs...  
• Restore the camera picture to stop the video loss error.  
• Restart the power supply to stop the video loss error.  
• For the camera for which video loss is occurring, change the recording settings to "No" to stop the video loss  
error. Set both Priority recording and Auto-Recoding to "No."

20.4. Fan Malfunction  
A Fan Malfunction error occurs if the cooling fan is broken or has been interrupted by some foreign object.  
The time at which the fan malfunctioned can be confirmed by looking at the error log. If the fan is  
malfunctioning, a "*" mark is also displayed at the bottom right of the screen.

Fan Malfunction occurs  
20.4.1. If a fan malfunction occurs....  
First turn the power off. Operating the Digital Video Recorder without a functioning fan can cause heat  
buildup, potentially leading to burns or malfunction. Therefore, it is important to pull out the power supply plug  
immediately.  
• If the malfunction has been caused by the presence of a foreign object in the fan, remove the object.  
• If the fan is simply broken, it will need to be replaced. Consult your TOA dealer for more information.  
20.5. “Hard Disk Full” Warning  
If the overwrite setting is set to "Overwrite Protect” and the hard disk drive begins to run out of free space, a  
Remaining Capacity Warning begins. If no recording time remains, a Hard Disk Full error occurs. The time at  
which the Remaining Capacity Warning started or at which the hard disk became too full to record further, can  
be confirmed by looking at the error log.  
20.5.1. If the hard disk becomes full....  
• This will cancel the Hard Disk Full status. To set the overwrite setting to "Overwrite Protect" again, set the  
overwrite setting to "Overwrite Protect."  
• Hard Disk Full status can be cancelled by initializing the hard disk and restart the power.  
Note  
Initializing the disk will cause all video and other data stored on it to be erased. If any of the data on the disk is  
needed, be sure to copy it to another location before initializing the disk.

Notes  
• Motion is detected by sensing changes in brightness and  
contour movement. For dark images, since the brightness  
change is minute, set an appropriate sensitivity relative to  
camera's brightness level. Also, motion is hard to detect for  
out-of-focus images. Be sure to adjust the focus so that the  
image does not blur even when the ambient light level  
becomes low.  
• In some cases, motion cannot be detected or false motion is  
detected depending on the motion sensitivity or brightness  
level of the images.  
This function is not a dedicated device for prevention of  
burglar, fire and etc. TOA takes no responsibility for any  
incidental loss or accidents.

Note: Underlined settings represent factory-preset settings.  
*1 Avoid time sync settings one hour before and after the start and end date/time for daylight savings time. Failure to do  
so could lead to incorrect time synchronization.  
*2 In some cases set time is not synchronized immediately after the setting has been saved when synchronized using the  
NTP server. In such case, synchronization can be complete by restarting the power or wail for a while.  
Weeks for daylight savings time are as follows:  
First week  
Second week : Eighth to fourteenth  
Third week : Fifteenth to twenty-first  
Fourth week : Twenty-second to twenty-eighth  
Last week : Previous 7 calendar days including the last day  
: First to seventh

Administrator account can access to all operations, while User account can access to the limited operations:  
live image monitoring; notification by LED indicator and camera control.  
1. Open a web browser on a PC.  
Note  
Open a web browser using a single PC. It may not operate  
properly if multiple PCs have accessed.  
2. Enter the Digital Video Recorder’s network IP address into  
the web browser address. (Refer to p. 90; Network setting.)  
The authentication screen is displayed.  
3. Enter an account name and a password.  
Administrator account name: root  
User account name: user  
Note  
It is recommended that WEB User password and WEB  
Administrator password be set. The PC user could change  
the settings if the password is not set. (Refer to p. 90;  
Network settings.)  
4. Click on "Login" to display the top page.  
Note  
If an incorrect account name or password has been entered,  
the display reverts to the authentication screen.  
31.3.1. Access inhibit  
Up to 3 PCs are connectable. Up to 3 user accounts are accessible. Only one administrator account is  
accessible. If an administrator account is registered into 1 PC, then up to 2 more PCs can be connected with  
user accounts.  
If the number of connected persons reaches the maximum limit, further operation is prohibited and the  
following screen is displayed. Also, if 1 PC is connected with the administrator account, then logging in to the  
second PC with the administrator account will cause the same screen to be displayed.  
The maximum number of users are connected please try again later.

31.4. Top Page  
If authentication is successful, the top page is displayed.  
Clicking on the items shown on the top page switches the display to the relevant screen. Clicking “Logout”  
reverts the display to the authentication screen. Be sure to log out when you are finished with operation. An  
automatic logout function is also available. For a top page or menu screen, the server keeps a watch on  
access from the client, automatically logs out 10 minutes after last access if no other action has occurred.  
When live screens, playback screens or remote control screens are being displayed, automatic logout does  
not function even if 10 minutes have elapsed.  
31.4.1. For Administrator Account  
• Top page  
• Live image transmission (p. 107)  
• Playback transmission (p. 110)  
• Remote control (p. 114)  
• Menu screen (p. 106)  
• Logout  
31.4.2. For User Accounts  
• Top page  
• Live Image transmission (p. 107)  
• Logout  
Notes  
• To logout, be sure to terminate the operation by clicking "Logout."  
• The automatic logout function uses the Digital Video Recorder’s clock. Therefore, changing time settings  
during login using the Digital Video Recorder menu or web menu could automatically cause you to log out of

32. RECORDING TIME TABLE  
32.1. About Picture Quality Settings During Recording  
The Digital Video Recorder offers five levels of picture quality, allowing desired picture quality to be balanced  
with desired recording time. To set the appropriate picture quality, first determine parameters for desired  
recording times, recording intervals, and recording types based on monitoring conditions. It is advisable to  
conduct test recordings to ensure that the resulting recordings balance picture quality against needed  
recording time correctly as desired. (Note: The recording times specified in the accompanying tables are  
guidelines only, and actual values may vary.) (Refer to p. 44; Recording Rate.)  
Notes  
• The following tables show estimated recording times based on identical recording rates for all cameras.  
• The maximum total recording rate is 120 IPS for the normal mode and 60 IPS for the Mirror mode.  
• The following table shows the recording time of the normal mode. The recording time of mirror recording  
mode is half that of normal mode.  
• Mirror recording mode cannot be used with models having hard disk drive capacities of 80 GB or 160 GB  
alone.  
• The numbers shown in the tables indicate hours of recording time.
