Capturing a Snapshot (Still Image)

All snapshots are saved in a default folder called images which is created automatically on a USB device. You must attach a USB device to the DVR5100 before you start to capture a snapshot. If a USB device is not attached to the unit when you start to capture the snapshot, an error mes- sage appears and the snapshot is not saved.

NOTE: The instructions in this manual refer to the DVR5100 Control Pad. An optional KBD5000 keyboard or USB PC keyboard and mouse also can be used to operate the DVR5100 instead of the Control Pad. Refer to Understanding DVR Controls and Menus on page 13 for alternate keystrokes if you any of these devices.
