PLAYBACK ON ANOTHER DEVICE

Data recorded on an external copying or archiving device can be played back on a per- sonal computer or laptop computer.

1.Make sure the PC or laptop computer has the DX3016RX Remote Viewing Software installed on it. The software was supplied with your DX3000 Series recorder or can be downloaded from Pelco’s website at Pelco.com.

2.Connect the external copying or recording device to the PC or laptop computer.

BACKING UP DATA

The recorder can back up data which is recorded on the hard disk drive. You can back up data previously recorded data at the same time the DVR is recording new data (refer to the section on Simultaneous Recording and Backup).

There are two ways to make copies:

Using the ARCHIVE button

Using the COPY button

USING THE ARCHIVE BUTTON

NOTE: If you use the ARCHIVE button, the peripheral recording device must be assigned to SCSI ID number 4.

Start Copying

Press the ARCHIVE button. The button starts blinking. While the light is blinking, the archiving process is being set up. This may take several minutes. When the light remains on, the backup is in progress.

When the ARCHIVE button is pressed, the recorder makes backups after the point indi- cated by the Archive Pointer. If the Archive Overwrite setting is OFF, the backup process will not overwrite data already recorded on the storage medium. If ON, data previously re- corded on the storage medium will be overwritten and erased. Refer to Archive, Overwrite in the Programming section.

The position of the Archive Pointer will not be erased when the unit’s main power switch is turned off. To reset the position of the pointer, refer to Archive Pointer Reset in the Pro- gramming section.

Stop Copying

Press the ARCHIVE button. The button blinks while the archiving process is halted. If the Auto Eject setting is ON, the medium is automatically ejected at the end of the process. The Archive Pointer is repositioned to where operation was stopped, and the next backup recording will begin at this point.

Timer Backup

Timer backup is a method for using the timer to perform archive backup. The timer can be used to archive data in the main hard disk drive that has not yet been backed up. The unit can archive data even if it is currently in the process of timer recording.

Refer to Timer Recording in the Programming section to program the recorder. In the Mode setting, select ARC.

The recorder makes backups on the archive device after the point indicated by the Archive Pointer if the ARCHIVE OVERWRITE setting is OFF. If ON, data previously recorded on the storage medium will be overwritten and erased. Refer to Archive, Overwrite in the Program- ming section.
