Quick start

Recordings are saved to the SD card by default. You can not manually transfer recordings off the SD card to
iOS or Windows systems. Download recordings using the Admin panel. For other options, like downloading to
a USB memory device or using Automatic File Uploads, see

data. Stop all recordings before powering down the system.
