Archiving recorded files
Archive recorded files using an external device. You can also archive specific
incidents in a file. You must be in live mode to play back a recorded file.
You can insert a mini-USB hub to the USB port to attach a mouse for navigation and
a USB drive for archiving. However, the unit may not support all types of USB hubs.
Note: You must have playback privileges to play back recorded files. Avoid moving
the external recording device when backing up information onto it.
Archiving the day’s recorded files
Use the Archive Today option on the Play Back screen to archive all the day’s
recordings. A dialog box displays the backup status.
If the external device is not connected correctly or the TVR 10 does not detect the
external device, an alert dialog displays. Please alert the administrator if this occurs.
Archiving recorded files from a file list
You can also archive recorded files displayed in the File List box.
To archive files from the File List box:
1. Search for recorded files.
For more information on searching for recorded files, see “Searching for a
recorded video” on page 33.
2. Select the files that you want to back up.
In the file list box, click the file you want to archive. The checkmark symbol
indicates a selected file. Select additional files you want to archive. You can use
the Up and Down Arrow buttons to move through the files as shown in the figure
below. Press ENTER to select the file you want to archive.
