DATA BACKUP SETUP
Video data recorded on the DX8000 can be backed up to a variety of media. The backup process involves selecting a specific time range to be
archived and the type of media to be used for the backup. The primary difference between backing up and exporting video is that backup archives
all channels for a specific time period while export only archives selected channels. Following the directions below, Power User and
Administrators can set up and perform backups.
You must use the DX8000 Client application to view backed-up data. For more information about viewing backed-up data, refer to the Client
Applications Manual.
