Archiving recorded files
Archive recorded files on an external device such as a USB. As well as being able to archive a
complete recorded file, you can also archive specific incidents in a file. You must be in live mode
to archive video. Access to archive functions may require a password.
There are three ways to archive a file:
Quick archive: Quickly archive all recorded files on the unit by pressing the Archive
button on the front panel or IR remote control.
Standard archive: Select the recorded files that you want to archive.
Auto backup: Recordings are automatically backed up according to a set schedule.
You must have playback rights to playback recorded images. See “Adding a new user
”
on page
93 for more information.
Files can be saved on several types of media. If both a DVD/CD and a USB device are found in
the TVR 40, the DVD/CD takes precedence.
Note:
Avoid moving the external recording device when backing up information onto it.
