5.1 SD Card Formatting
For a brand new SD Card of SDHC standard, it can be used directly. But with situations listed below, you’re
required to format it before using:

If the SD Card is of SDXC standard (like a 64GB SD Card), the defaulted file format is exFAT, which will
not be recognized by the DVR system. You have to format it by using FAT32 file system on your PC.
PationManager, which can be downloaded from internet free of charge, is recommended to be used for
fast formatting and batch processing.
2)
If the SD Card is never formatted, or the file system is corrupted, you may have to format it before
using. This can be done on your PC by using FAT32 file system, or format it on the DVR system itself
by following steps given below:
3)
Insert the SD Card into the SD Card slot on front panel of the DVR system;
4)
Press

by remote to enter the DVR system menu;
a)
Choose “STORAGE” and press
<MENU>
