T804 DIGITAL VIDEO RECORDER – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your new T804 Digital Video Recorder (DVR)

The T804 DVR combines the reliability of digital recording with the simplicity of ‘VCR

style’ controls. Instead of dealing with files and folders, the T804 DVR employs simple

‘one-touch recording’, ‘one-touch playback’ and a simple ‘time remaining’ display.

However, although the controls are as simple as those on a VCR, the T804 DVR never

needs rewinding and there is no possibility of recording over an important survey.

There is no tape, hard disk or delicate DVD to get damaged; all recordings are made on

the Industry-standard Compact Flash Card (CF). The T804 DVR is fully integrated into

the T804 system and was designed specifically for this application.

This Operating Manual contains a ‘Quick Start Guide’ to get you working quickly and

has separate sections for the most-used functions. Please read the manual fully before

operating your Digital Video Recorder.

QUICK START GUIDE

The T804 CF card can be fitted

when the unit is switched OFF or

when the ‘DVR status’ LED is

GREEN.

Lay the T804 Control Unit flat on the

frame. Remove the CF Card cover

by lifting the central catch with the

hawser and then pulling away from

the Control Unit:

Fully remove the CF card cover

Fit the CF card as shown, the holes

go towards the T804, there is

always a small arrow on the card

that shows which end should be

inserted. Do not force the card into

position, it only fits one way and

should smoothly locate.

Refit the cover making sure it clicks

into place.

Allow the T804 to initialize so that the

DVR status indicator seen on the T804

display shows the ‘READY’ symbol

and the Status LED is GREEN.

microphone is switched OFF. To switch

the microphone ON press the ‘C’ button

on the CF card for your survey

Press ‘Record’ to start the

recording. When you have finished

LED is flashing RED. If the LED does

not flash RED then the CF card is

incompatible OR the CF card is full.

THE T804 DVR STATUS DISPLAY

The T804 DVR alerts the user of the current

be shown.

LED has three states:

removed or replaced, ready for operation.

RECORDING – CHECKING SPACE LEFT ON THE CARD

Recording using the T804 DVR is very simple.

Ensure that the T804 DVR is ‘Ready’ as shown by the symbol in the ‘DVR status

display’ and the Status LED is GREEN.

Press the ‘Record’ button to start recording.

The DVR status will show

‘Record mode’ momentarily followed

by the ‘Busy’ symbol. The DVR

will now check CF card space and will

momentarily display the screen shown

here. After a few seconds the live

picture will return, the record symbol,

page number and battery-level meter

will dissapear and will not be recorded

unless the Power Cell requires

recharging. In this situation a flashing

‘B’ will appear in the picture. The

Status LED will start FLASHING RED

If there was no space left on the CF

card the screen will show this display

momentarily. Replace the CF card with

a new card. If the recordings on the CF

card are not required and have been

copied to DVD, CD or onto a computer

then you can FORMAT the CF card as

described in the next section.

You can record voice messages

while recording by speaking close to

the T804 monitor. There is a

microphone built into the housing and

this will record any voice messages

that are announced close to the

monitor. The voice messages will be recorded with the video picture.

CF CARD – SPACE – DELETING AND FORMATTING

Before starting a recording it is

good practice to check how much

space is left on the CF card.

When the ‘DVR status’ shows

‘Ready’, press the ‘DISP’

button. The ‘DVR status’ will show

‘Busy’ for a time and then the

display as shown here will be

displayed. The example shown

indicates that there is 4 minutes of

recording time left on the CF card

(84MB).

After 3 seconds the DVR will

return to the ‘Ready’ state

CF cards are readily available

in various storage sizes.

The recording time that can fit

on a single card is dependant

on its storage size.

A 4GB card will store 4 hours

of recordings

A 1GB card will store 1 hour of

recordings

A 512MB card will store 30

minutes of recordings

Troglotech reccommends using

4GB cards with at least a ‘80x’

speed rating. Cards with a lower

speed rating will not allow

recordings to be made. Do not use cards with a capacity greater than 4GB as these are

generally too slow to operate correctly. Please note that Windows 98 machines will

accept a maximum of 2GB. If your PC runs Win98 please use 2GB cards.

TROGLOTECH T804 DVR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS PAGE 9 OF 16

CF cards can be reused almost indefinately. Once the recordings have been transferred to a

DVD or to a computer the CF card can be entrirely erased (formatted).

If required, single recordings can be erased from the CF card.

To erase a complete CF

card

(better known as

formatting) follow this procedure:

Ensure that the T804 DVR is

‘Ready’ as shown by the

symbol in the ‘DVR status

display’.

Press the button. After a

short while the T804 screen will

show the picture pictured here.

Press the ‘Left’ button to

highlight the ‘YES’ box and then

press the ‘YES’ button. After

Formatting the DVR will return to

‘Ready’, this may take up to a

minute depending on the size and

speed of the CF card.

If you pressed the ‘Format

CF card’ button by mistake and you do not want to Format the card then, press the

‘NO’ button. This will return the DVR to the ‘Ready’ state without Formatting the CF card.

Once the CF card is Formatted it will be completely empty and you can record as though this

was a brand new CF card. The card will not be damaged in any way by Formatting and this

can be performed as many times as required.

If you just want to delete a single recording rather than the complete CF card then this can

be performed simply.

the recording:

Ensure that the T804 DVR is ‘Ready’

as shown by the symbol in the

‘DVR status display’.

playing a recording.

‘Next recording’ buttons to select

the recording you want to erase.

Once the recording you want to delete

is being played, press the ‘Erase’

button. The screen will change to that

shown here.

To erase the recording, press the

‘Left’ button to highlight the ‘YES’ box

shown on the screen and then press

the ‘YES’ button. The recording will now be erased and the DVR will begin playing the

previous recording. You can now press the ‘Stop’ button to return to the ‘Ready’ state or

you can erase further recordings with the ‘Erase’ button.
