Archiving recorded files
Archive recorded files on an external device such as a USB flash drives, USB
HDDs, eSATA HDD or a DVD writer.
Before starting to archive files, ensure that you have the backup device
connected to the NVR. It can be detected automatically by the NVR.
It is important that the external storage device is set to the Export option in order
to be able to archive. See ““Using an external recording device” on page 83”.
Note: The USB port on the rear panel does not support USB CD/DVD burners or
USB HDDs.
Archiving files
There are two ways to archive files:
Quick Archive: Quick archive lets you archive recorded files quickly by using the
Archive button on the front panel. The NVR then downloads all the recorded files
on the unit to fill the available memory space on the media. This option is not
available via the mouse.
Advanced Search screen: You can specify archiving settings such as a specific
time and date period, recording type, start and end times, as well as cameras.
Using Quick Archive
To archive recorded video using Quick Archive:
1. Insert the backup device into the TVN 50.
If using a USB memory drive, insert the device into the USB port on the front
panel. If using a digital video disk (DVD) or eSATA drive, insert the disc into
the DVD drive. If more than one media type is found in the TVN 50, the USB
device takes precedence over the others.
2. Press Archive on the front panel or remote control to open the quick archive
screen.
