Model PD-6 owner's manual (supplement for V2.10)
The PD-6 software is upgraded to V2.10 and you can now operate mirror recording and auto copy in the IMME (Immediately) mode in the safer condition. Please read this supplement together with the original manual and other supplementary manuals.
With the older version, when performing mirror recording and auto copy in the IMME (Immediately) mode, if the unit cannot cope with recording to the DVD-RAM disk because of dust, grime, or a scratch on the disk, or because the unit is swamped with data, the unit issues "Time Out error" or stops recording to both hard disk and DVD-RAM disk. With version 2.10, this is improved. That is, while performing mirror recording (or auto copy), even if the unit cannot cope with recording to a DVD-RAM disk by any reason such as described above, it continues recording to the internal hard disk. After recording to the internal hard disk completes, the data which has not been recorded to the DVD-RAM disk is automatically copied to the DVD-RAM disk from the hard disk. Thus, mirror recording (or auto copy) now can be performed safer. While the unit performs mirror recording or auto copy, the message showing the current status may be displayed. Note that if new mirror recording (or auto copy) starts while data copy (backup) from the hard disk to the DVD-RAM disk, the new recording takes priority and the data copy is interrupted.
Cancelled!, Mirror recording Mirror recording is interrupted because the unit is swamped with data and cannot cope with recording to the DVD-RAM disk (the unit continues recording to the hard disk). After recording stops, the unit starts backup copy for mirroring (from the hard disk to the DVD-RAM disk) which failed to be recorded to the DVD-RAM disk. The unit restarts backup copy for mirroring (from the hard disk to the DVD-RAM disk) which is interrupted by performing new mirror recording. Backup copy for mirroring ends. Backup copy for mirroring is canceled because of a disk error.
Mirroring backup, Start!
Mirroring backup, Restart! Mirroring backup, End! Mirroring backup, Disk error!
Cancelled!, Auto IMME copy Auto copy in the IMME mode is interrupted because the unit is swamped with data and cannot cope with recording to the DVD-RAM disk (the unit continues recording to the hard disk). After recording stops, the unit starts copying data (from the hard disk to the DVDRAM disk) which failed to be recorded to the DVD-RAM disk during auto copy in the IMME mode. The unit restarts auto copy backup (from the hard disk to the DVD-RAM disk) which is interrupted by performing new auto copy. Backup operation of auto copy in the IMME mode ends. Backup operation of auto copy is canceled because of a disk error.
Auto copy backup, Start!
Auto copy backup, Restart! Auto copy backup, End! Auto copy backup, Disk error!
If any of the messages above is shown during mirror recording or auto copy in the IMME (Immediately) mode, the DVD-RAM disk currently set may not reliable. In such a case, it is recommended that you should change the disk to a new one or physically format it.
