real time. Five commands can be executed. Depending on the S/W status, however, some commands cannot be
executed.

selected storage device will be moved to the {New} storage device manager.
Online
Changes the selected storage device in online state.
Offline
Changes the selected storage device in offline state.
Format
Format the selected storage.
Eject
Separates the selected device completely from the software.
Physical states supporting the execution of the commands above include Healthy and
Warning. In fault state, however, no command can be executed.
When removing a hard disk installed in the DVR or storages connected to USB
port, the user shall execute the {Eject} command.
Backup
The backup storage is managed in Backup. Backup storages are not used to store data; rather, they are only
used to back up data. The user can execute only the {New} command.
Depending on the storage type, the storage is used only for {Direct} or {Backup}
purposes.

Warning

storing or backup cannot be made (for more information, see the description below).
Fault
Not connected to storage or backup device; cannot perform data saving or backup.
B. Operation after adding a local storage device
1. Fault State: The storage device is completely damaged, and none of the S/W operations
can be performed. The fault state is not related to a DVR problem. The DVR has detected the
fault and stopped the recording.
2. Warning State: The storage device has a physical error that can be corrected by the storage
device or by the DVR. If the error is not taken care of, however, the storage device is likely to
be damaged (and shift to fault state). Backing up data in the corresponding storage device and
replacing the device with a normal one are strongly recommended.
3. If there is an active storage device with a warning or a fault, a message is displayed on the
upper left part of the screen.
