Highlight DISK MANAGEMENT, then press   to manage the internal hard drives.
NoteWhen a RECORD TIME LIMIT is set, the OVERWRITE option cannot be 
changed. 
RECORD TIME LIMITIn certain circumstances, it might be necessary to limit the 
amount of footage stored on the DVR (to comply with data 
protection laws for example).
Recording can be limited to 12 hours, 1 day, 2 days, 3 
days, 1 week, or one month.
When the DVR has this amount of footage stored, it will 
start to overwrite the earliest recorded footage.
OVERWRITEWhen ON, the DVR starts overwriting the earliest recorded 
footage once the hard drive becomes full. In this case, the 
percentage of hard drive used shown in live display will 
always be 99%. 
When set to OFF, the DVR continues recording from that 
time until the hard disk capacity is full. The DVR will 
Overwrite all video that was recorded before the time that 
Overwrite was set to OFF, and then the DVR will stop 
recording. 
FORMATIf necessary, use this option to erase all footage from the 
DVR.

two channels from each group. 
NoteRemember that if the SCHEDULE MODE is set to WEEKLY, then the 
recording settings should be changed for each day as well as for each 
particular time. 
NoteThis DVR supports a maximum recording rate across all channels of 480 
frames per second at 352x240 resolution. As the settings are adjusted, the 
“frames available” at the bottom left displays the number of available frames 
still remaining and must always be zero or higher. See Configuring
