c) Function “Format SD/USB”
Memory cards of type microSD or microSDHC and USB drives are usually formatted in the file system FAT/
FAT32 and can be used in the screen/DVR at once.
Conventional hard discs, however, are either empty/unformatted, or were partitioned/formatted on a com-
puter (and on Windows PCs usually in file system NTFS). In both cases, such hard discs could not be
operated at the screen/DVR.
For this reason, the screen/DVR in its function “Format SD/USB” offers the option of formatting the con-
nected data carrier in the file system FAT32.
Attention!
When formatting, all data on the respective data carrier will be lost!
• After calling the function, use the control buttons “
S
” or “
F
” (9) to choose between the “SD Card”
(memory card) or “USB Device” (USB data carrier).
• Briefly push the “OK” (8) button. A safety prompt appears.
• Use the control buttons “
S
” or “
F
” (9) to choose between “Cancel” and “OK” (yes, format data carrier):
• To confirm the selection, push the button “OK” (8). Alternatively, push the “MENU” (5) button to return to
the previous menu (cancel).
If formatting of the data carrier was confirmed, formatting starts. Depending on data carrier
size, this may take a while.
d) Function “Storage for Recording”
Here, the data carrier is used to save the surveillance videos can be set.
• After calling the function, use the control buttons “
S
” or “
F
” (9) to choose between the “SD Card”
(memory card) or “USB Device” (USB data carrier).
• Save the selection with the button “OK” (8); then you will leave setting mode again.
To leave setting mode without saving the settings (cancel), push the button “MENU” (5).
