Backing Up
Backup to CD: The EDVRCD range is fitted with a CD Writer for easy backing up on to a compatible Windows PC.
To back up the user simply inserts a CDR or CDRW and then selects the recording that needs to be backed up. The
unit then copies the recording requested and the Windows Playback Software on to the CD, this CD can then be
played back on any compatible Windows PC.
Networking/Internet Access
The EDVRCD range does not have networking/internet access, if you require these features please see the Xvision
TDVR Professional DVR range.
Recording Times: The following table shows an estimation of the recording space required to record for a day on all
the different fps and picture quality settings that can be selected. The GB shown are per day of recording time, to
calculate the time for a particular hard drive size that will be fitted in the DVR simply divide the Hard Drive size by
the GB shown on the table. (eg. For an 80Gb being recorded to at 25 fps in Best quality and at 720x288 resolution,
the calculation will be 80GB divided by 40GB which is 2 days)
