MAPPING AND DISCONNECTING A NETWORK DRIVE
You can export sections of prerecorded video to a network drive. The DX8000 allows you to map to or disconnect from a network drive. In this
case, you must use the IP address of the target drive. The DX8000 allows you to use the host name of the target device. To do so, you must
enable NetBIOS option in the Windows environment. You need to know what letters are already assigned to drives and the path to the folder you
want to map.
