See Appendix C, Reviewing Video Clips for instructions on how to review video clips you have copied. You do not need to install any special software on your personal computer to review the video clips.

Note During Clip Copy, you cannot shut the system down, clear data on the storage device, or format the storage device.

Caution Do NOT disconnect the USB cable or the power from the external drive while copying video clips. If the external drive is shut down or the USB cable is disconnected while copying video clips, then

THE DVR SYSTEM MAY NOT WORK NORMALLY OR THE EXTERNAL DRIVE COULD BE DAMAGED. You will get an error message the next time you try to copy video clips. You will need to power down the DVR and restart it to get rid of the error message.

If the file system of the USB-IDE hard disk drive has been corrupted, then this error message cannot be dismissed. Even after restarting the DVR it may automatically restart while preparing to clip copy. You must recover the file system using the recovery program, or you must reformat the hard disk drive.
