NexLog Recorder User Manual v2.2.0 95
For NexLog recorders equipped with the newer LG Multi-Drives, use the
following media types:
PANASONIC 4.7 GB DVD-RAM, single-sided media, (non-cartridge)
PANASONIC 9.4 GB DVD-RAM, double-sided media, inside a Type 4
cartridge (Note: the disk must be removed from the Type-4 cartridge
prior to use in an LG Multi-drive). The disk will need to be flipped to
use the 2
nd
side.
Note: Regarding Data Protection: Although the recorder incorporates an archive
protection mechanism, this is only effective when playing the archive in the
recorder itself. When playing the archive in an ordinary PC that accepts the
cassette, it is not protected from being overwritten unless the write protection
tab on the Type 4 cassette is set.
CD-R Media: CD-R and DVD-R/RW/RW+, etc. media are not supported for
archiving. They are supported for exporting media via the Front Panel. If you try
to archive onto a CD-R, it won’t work, and it may not be immediately clear why,
so be sure to confirm that you are using the proper (DVD-RAM) archive medium.
4.7.4. Sequential and Parallel Modes
These modes apply only to recorders with more than one archive drive.
Otherwise, the setting has no effect.
Sequential mode means that archiving will continue automatically to the next
available medium. In the following figure, the top disk is writing calls. When the
disk fills up, archiving will continue on the middle drive, and then on the bottom
drive. The middle and bottom drives must contain formatted, blank media. After
the disks are full, they can be flipped if they are double-sided, and the process
will continue. For example, when the top disk Side A fills up, the middle disk
Side A will begin recording. When that is full, the bottom disk Side A will begin
recording. After Side A is full on any of the disks, you can flip the disk to Side B.
After the bottom disk, Side A, is full, the recording will continue on the top drive
Side B, and so on.
Parallel mode means that archiving will not continue automatically on the next
available drive. Instead, you can begin recording on the top drive and on the
middle drive simultaneously (and the bottom drive if you wish) and all drives will
record the same data. This mode uses more disks but provides redundancy.
4.7.5. Network Archive Storage Configuration(NAS)
The recorder is able to archive not only to its own internal drives and removable
media, it can also use network attached storage (NAS) on a typical Microsoft
Windows network for archiving.
