NOTE

Do not disconnect the USB cable or the power from the external drive while copying video clips. If the

external drive is shut down or the USB cable is disconnected while copying video clips, THE DVR

SYSTEM MAY NOT WORK NORMALLY OR THE EXTERNAL DRIVE COULD BE DAMAGED, and

you will get an error message the next time you try to copy video clips. You will need to power down

the DVR and restart it to get rid of the error message. Once the file system of the USB hard disk drive

has been corrupted, this error message cannot be dismissed. Even after restarting the DVR it may

automatically restart while preparing to clip copy. You must recover the file system using the recovery

program, or you must reformat the hard disk drive.
