The DGy 201x records video and audio to disk. The disk can be a removable or optional fixed, or optional remote disk. Recordings, stored as one or more data files, can be transferred to an external device for subsequent viewing on a PC using the RGB Spectrum software player in conjunction with the Windows Media Player.
It is also possible to transfer files from an external drive to a DGy 201x for later replay on the DGy 201x. This method can be used if it is necessary to clone a DGy 201x recorder.
Transfer is accomplished using the DGy 201x FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client.
Transfers can involve very large file sizes. The transfer rate on a typical network connection is similar to the rate at which the image can be stored to disk. This means that the transfer of files is approximately real- time; a clip that is 15 minutes in length will take approximately 15 minutes to transfer.
The FTP Client is started from the DGy Applications Suite shown in Figure
page 19.
