18. ARCHIVE
The Digital Video Recorder is equipped with an archive function that transfers image data recorded on the
hard disk to DVD-R/RW disk (available only to models with DVD drives) or USB memory. Camera image data
designated between start position and end position can be archived. Since dedicated viewer software is also
downloaded at the same time, archived images can be easily played back on a PC.
Note
Archive operation can be performed only at the operation level 1. When the security has been set, perform
archive operation after login to the Operation Level 1.
Two methods can be used to designate the archiving range.
• Designate the archiving range after entering date and time.
•Designate the archiving range while viewing the playback image.
[ Archiving to USB memory devices ]
Notes
• Connect the USB memory device to the copy terminal of the Digital Video Recorder.
• Only mass storage class devices (those recognized as "USB mass storage memory devices" under
Windows 2000/XP) can be used.
• Compatible with USB 1.1 devices only. Not compatible with USB 2.0 devices.
• USB memory devices formatted with FAT12/FAT16 can only be used.
• It is not possible to play back video files copied to the USB memory device on the Digital Video Recorder.
Connect the USB device to a PC and use viewer software to play back files.
• If USB memory is removed when USB archive is in progress, the Digital Video Recorder will then be unable
to recognize USB memory. Be sure to remove it after finishing archiving or after archive operation is
stopped.
[ Archiving to DVD media (models with DVD drives only) ]
Notes
• Usable media: DVD-R, DVD-RW
Unusable media: DVD-R DL, DVD+R/RW, DVD+R DL, and DVD-RAM
• Data cannot be added to DVD media after the initial copying. If using a DVD-RW, first erase any existing
data on the disc before using it. (This must be done on a PC and cannot be done on the Digital Video
Recorder.)
• It is not possible to play back video files copied to a DVD on the main unit. Insert the DVD in the drive of a
compatible computer and use viewer software to play back files.
• Do not play DVDs copied on the Digital Video Recorder in a standard DVD player as doing so risks
damaging the DVD player.
• Playback cannot be performed on a PC if the power is turned off during DVD archiving, as archiving is not
complete, making it impossible to recognize DVD media.
