Video Backup

**Video backup can only be performed on a USB Flash drive. It will not backup to portable USB DVD
drive.**

Access the Function Menu and click on the Backup icon.

On the right-hand side, set the Start and End date and time. Check the camera numbers below the 
date/time settings you wish to backup. Click the Search button. The files that are found for the search 
criteria will be displayed on the list. You can check the files individually or check the All box at the 
bottom. Then click the Backup button.

Then, from the backup information tab, you can check some options that may be relevant for you. The 
storage media should be USB drive. Player backup can be checked to allow the video to be played on a 
Windows PC. Save file type allows the backup file format to be changed to AVI so that these files can 
be played from a common media player.

**Note: If the backup files are saved in DVR format, please check the backup player. Only this player 
can play these files in DVR format. If the backup files are saved in AVI format, you can play these files
with any common media player**
