Manage recorded files
Pearl-2 and Pearl Nano save recordings by default to the SD card (or SATA M.2 2280 SSD on Pearl Nano) .
When the SD card is full, new recordings overwrite the oldest recordings. You can not manually transfer
recordings off the SD card to iOS or Windows systems.
There are a variety of ways to automatically transfer files from the system to local network storage. You
can also manually select individual recordings to transfer or delete using the Admin panel.
For information about automatic file transfers, see
