Data recorded on an external copying or archiving device can be played back on a per-

installed on it. The software was supplied with your DX3000 Series recorder or can be
downloaded from Pelco’s website at Pelco.com.
2. Connect the external copying or recording device to the PC or laptop computer.
BACKING UP DATA
The recorder can back up data which is recorded on the hard disk drive. You can back up
data previously recorded data at the same time the DVR is recording new data (refer to the
section on
Simultaneous Recording and Backup
).
There are two ways to make copies:
Using the ARCHIVE button
Using the COPY button
USING THE ARCHIVE BUTTON
NOTE:
If you use the ARCHIVE button, the peripheral recording device must be
assigned to SCSI ID number 4.
Start Copying
Press the ARCHIVE button. The button starts blinking. While the light is blinking, the
archiving process is being set up. This may take several minutes. When the light remains
on, the backup is in progress.
When the ARCHIVE button is pressed, the recorder makes backups after the point indi-
cated by the Archive Pointer. If the Archive Overwrite setting is OFF, the backup process
will not overwrite data already recorded on the storage medium. If ON, data previously re-
corded on the storage medium will be overwritten and erased. Refer to
Archive, Overwrite
in the
Programming
section.
The position of the Archive Pointer will not be erased when the unit’s main power switch is
turned off. To reset the position of the pointer, refer to
Archive Pointer Reset
in the
Pro-
gramming
section.
Stop Copying
Press the ARCHIVE button. The button blinks while the archiving process is halted. If the
Auto Eject setting is ON, the medium is automatically ejected at the end of the process.
The Archive Pointer is repositioned to where operation was stopped, and the next backup
recording will begin at this point.
Timer Backup
Timer backup is a method for using the timer to perform archive backup. The timer can be
used to archive data in the main hard disk drive that has not yet been backed up. The unit
can archive data even if it is currently in the process of timer recording.
Refer to
Timer Recording
in the
Programming
section to program the recorder. In the Mode
setting, select ARC.
The recorder makes backups on the archive device after the point indicated by the Archive
Pointer if the ARCHIVE OVERWRITE setting is OFF. If ON, data previously recorded on the
storage medium will be overwritten and erased. Refer to
Archive, Overwrite
in the
Program-
ming
section.
