3e) Locating File(s) in the List
New-Style Player: You can view files
pertaining to one day at a time (select the
folder for the desired day on the left).
Backup/Delete: The new-style player also allows you
to backup or delete files if desired (one at a time).
(Right-click a file and select Backup or Delete from the
pop-up menu.)
Remote Stations vs. Video Server
: At a remote
station, you can backup or delete only files stored
locally (i.e., that were recorded at that PC, or
downloaded). At a Video Server, you can work with
local files, or 'remote' files -- for folders that have
been 'mapped to' as a drive letter.
Attention: Deleted files cannot be
recovered. It is best to check your
backups before deleting any files.
CDs and Portable Drives: If your PC includes a CD
burner, you can backup files onto CDs once they
have been 'formatted' to be accessible through a
drive-letter (e.g., using DirectCD). Similarly, portable
drives can be used as long as they are available to
the PC before you select "Backup".

The bottom of the screen includes arrows for
changing the start and end date/times to

into a smaller date/time range, or return to the
full range.
