Video Backup
The DVR recycles the hard disks space by implementing a first-in first-out (FIFO) policy on recorded
video and audio data. That means that whenever the DVR needs disk space to record new video and
audio data, it must delete the oldest video and audio data recorded on the hard disk.
If you have valuable video and audio recordings that you want to save or have a copy of, you can use this
function.
Procedure Using the Remote Controller or Control Panel:
1. In Video Backup, use [LEFT] or [RIGHT] to navigate through the menu.
2. Press [UP], [DOWN], [+] or [-] to change the values.
3. When you are down changing values within the field, press [ENTER] or [SELECT].
4. After pressing [ENTER] or [SELECT], the available size and required size will be displayed.
5. Press [ENTER] or [SELECT] again to start back up. A dialog box will pop up, confirming your
request.
6. Select [YES] to continue. Otherwise, select [NO].
7. After selecting [YES], you will be brought back to Live View and the backup process will run in
the background. An icon at the top right will indicate that backup is on-going. During this time, DO NOT
unplug the USB device.
8. Once the icon disappears, backup is done and you may unplug the USB device.
