Scheduled Screen Overview

The Scheduled Backup Screen is used for performing bulk backup of video recorded by all cameras on
a regular scheduled basis (1-24 hours). The Scheduled Backup Screen is similar to the General Backup
Screen.

Performing a Scheduled Backup

1. Click Backup on the Display screen.

2. Click the Schedule tab at the top of the Backup Center window.

3. Select the blocks of time to back up using the Hour/Minute Grid. Blocks of time with recorded video

are highlighted in green. Blocks of time selected for backup are highlighted in red.

4. Set the Backup Time to perform the backup.

5. Set the Repeat Backup(Daily) time to specify the number of hours between backup procedures

(between 1 and 24 hours).

6. Select the Backup Drive to save the backup video under Select Backup Media or click Network

Drive. To save to a local drive or partition you must first rename the location “BACKUP”.

7. Select Overwrite on Disk Full to overwrite previous backup files when the disk becomes full.

8. Click Save Backup Setting to save the current backup setting and return to the Display screen.

Specifying Scheduled Backup Drives

In order to use the Scheduled Backup feature one or more storage drives or partitions connected to the
recorder must be specified as a backup drive.

1. From the Display screen, click Exit and choose Restart in Windows Mode.

2. Double-click My Computer.

3. Right-click on the drive to specify as a backup drive for Scheduled Backup and click Rename.

Rename the drive to ‘Backup’. Repeat this process for all drives to use for Scheduled Backup. To
remove a drive from use for Scheduled Backup, change its name to something other than ‘Backup’.

4. Restart the application and return to the

Schedule tab in the Backup Center
window.

Note

The C: Drive CANNOT be used
as a backup location; this is done
intentionally to protect the
operating system.
