BACKUP
The DX4500/DX4600 backup feature allows you to perform an instant backup of recorded data or configure the system to perform an automatic backup of data on a scheduled basis. The administrator or power user has permissions for setting up and conducting backup procedures.
The DX4500/DX4600 backup feature allows you to schedule how the DVR backs up recorded video data.
•Partition Selection: Allows you to specify the type of data to be backed up: all (instant, normal, and event [alarm/motion]), normal (instant and normal), or event (alarm and motion).
•Device: Indicates the destination backup media. The DVR determines what media is available and displays those media as options. If a USB device is installed, the system displays the manufacturer’s name of the device. (for example, a ClipDrive or Flash Drive).Table E describes the guidelines for backing up data to various media.
•Schedule: Specifies the backup period.
–OFF: Disables the backup feature.
–Daily: Schedules daily backups between the start and end time
–Weekly: Schedules weekly backups, allowing you to specify different start and end times for each day of the week.
–Instant: Allows you to manually backup data by specifying the date and the start and end time.
•Schedule Start: Specifies the day and time (in hours and minutes) the scheduled backup begins.
•Time Range Date: Defines the date the backup process begins.
•Time Range Start: Indicates the time the backup process begins.
•Time Range End: Indicates the time the backup process ends.
You cannot use the Estimate Size, Start Backup, or Erase Media options while the backup process is running.
The USB device should not be removed while the backup process is running. Doing so can disrupt the formatting of the USB drive. If the USB is removed, it will have to be reformatted to work properly.
