Copy recorded images
It is possible to manually copy images recorded in the recorder onto an SD memory card and DVD (DVD-R, +R)
disc.
It is recommended to make back-up copies on a regular basis for unexpected situations such as malfunction of
the hard disk drives.
It is impossible to copy recorded images when the recorder is in the following statuses.
• When the copy window is being opened by other user via a network
• When the SD memory card
or DVD disc is being selected by another user via a network
• When the media other than hard disk drives is selected
The copied recorded images can be played on the recorder or on a PC using the dedicated viewer software.
The viewer software will be automatically copied to an SD memory card or a DVD disc on which recorded imag-
es are copied.
Refer to page 87 for how to operate the viewer software. Refer to page 36 for how to play the copied recorded
images on the recorder.
Note:
• Recording on a DVD disc is available only with DVD-drive-equipped models.
• Pause the playback before starting copying when playing recorded images on the recorder.
• To copy recorded images onto an SD memory card, it is necessary to format an unformatted SDHC/SD
memory card or an SDHC/SD memory card formatted with another device on this recorder. (

• Required time for copying varies depending on the data size to be copied. It will take longer time to copy
recorded images when they were recorded with a larger image capture size, in a higher quality or at a higher
frame rate even though the same number of cameras and the same duration are set for copying.
• Copying of recorded images may sometimes be performed incorrectly when there exist 2 or more images
recorded at the same date & time resulting in change of the date & time setting or the auto time adjustment
function.
• In the following cases, the copying currently being performed will stop.
• When any of the settings of the recorder is changed
• When a user who started manual copy logged out or when auto logout is activated (It will take around 90
seconds until copying is stopped after the web browser is closed.)
• When the original data (source for copying) is lost (overwritten or malfunction of the hard disk drive)
Important:
• If data is once copied on a DVD disc, no more copy will be possible after ejection.
