•changing the name of the clip, by typing another name; the default for naming clips is explained in table 17, on p. 7–3.

•choosing another drive and/or folder to store the clip.

Honeywell recommends storing stills and clips in their own folder.

Clips and stills can be erased routinely after use, making it easy to erase other files by mistake. Storing clips and stills in a folder other than View’s application folder (the default folder for clips and stills) prevents the deletion of View system files.
