Using the HDD Reader (PC Only)
The HDD Reader is used to backup and playback video saved on an external hard drive (not included). This allows you to quickly backup long segments of video, such as hours or days. It is also useful if the DVR is damaged or removed by an intruder, and you need the video data that is stored on the external hard drive. For details on setting up an external hard drive with the DVR for HDD extension or mirroring, see “Configuring your External Hard Drive for HDD Mirroring or Extension” on page 39.
It may also be used to access the footage on your DVR’s internal hard drive when it is connected to your computer using a 3.5" SATA external hard drive enclosure (not included) using a USB cable (not included). This requires you to remove the hard drive from your DVR and install it in the external hard drive enclosure.
ATTENTION - When removing the hard drive, it is VERY IMPORTANT to follow the instructions in “Appendix F: Replacing the Hard Drive” on page 114 to avoid damaging your DVR.
To use the HDD Reader:
1Connect the external hard drive (not included) to your computer using a USB cable (not included).
NOTE: The hard drive may not be visible if you try to locate it using Windows Explorer or My Computer. This is normal. The DVR stores data in a format that is incompatible with Windows.
