Exporting Video

The DX4500/DX4600 allows you to export data to CD/DVD or USB media and then preview that data. For information about previewing exported video, refer to

NOTES:

•When exporting data, the start time must be set a minimum of two minutes earlier than the current time.

•The DX4500/DX4600 recorded video time stamp is affected by differing time zones. When video recorded on the DX4500/DX4600 server located in one time zone (for example, GMT -8:00) is exported and played back on a computer located in a different time zone (for example, GMT -5:00), the video's original recording time adjusts and displays based on the time zone of the playback computer. To play back exported video so its original recording time displays correctly, the time zone setting of the playback computer must be identically configured to the time zone of the DX4500/DX4600 server on which the video was recorded.
