Print, Zoom, De-interlace,
Image/Video Backup
Controls
Print – Prints the image
Image Zoom – Magnies the image in 48 incremental steps. Right-click with the mouse. When you place the
mouse over the image, the cursor changes to the +/- magnifying glass. Clicking the left mouse button zooms
out to a 1:1 ratio. By moving the mouse to dierent areas of the image, you can zoom in on parts on the image
that you need to look at in more detail. This means that the zoom does not need to be centralized in the middle of
the screen to work. See the section “Zoom” in this guide to see a zoomed image.
Image/Video Backup – Lets you access several options for copying images (other than HOUR BACKUP), including:
Video Backup (DSF format and viewer); Still Image Backup; Standard format (MPEG format)
Interlace/Deinterlace (4CIF) – (Only applies to the S-Class systems when processing 4CIF recorded data) When
printing the interlaced elds 4CIF images where the source was a dynamic (moving) image, the DVR captures
“Even” and “Odd” elds to create the frame. Greater clarity may be gained by viewing the images separately.
Option normally used while processing images for printout. See the section “Viewing Interlaced/Deinterlaced
images” in this guide for more information about this option.

how to use the timeline features.
