Remote Backup Function
The remote backup function allows the user to backup recorded data from the selected DVR to a
remote storage site. The backup function allows for manual, daily, weekly, monthly or a specified
backup schedule. User can choose all cameras or select individual cameras for backup as well as the
method of recording. The Backup Function allows the user to backup in the DVR’s original file
format (VDB) or AVI (MPEG4). To begin Remote Backup, click the Remote backup icon. Even
when a site is disconnected, a scheduled backup will connect automatically and begin the scheduled
backup. If backup operation is interrupted because of network instability, the backup operation will be
resumed if network is recovered within set time. Please note: The remote software must be running for
the backup function to work. The program does not have to be connected to any DVR sites and
can be minimized.
The Remote Backup task screen appears. This screen lists all scheduled tasks.
