The XVR can easily backup important video data to an internal or external media location. The most commonly used forms of this are
DVD-ROM-R/RWs, External USB or FireWire Hard Drives, and Net work Drives. Every XVR unit comes standard equipped with a
DVD±RW drive, USB port, and Network Adapter.
The XVR is capable of performing a backup to multiple DVDs when the file sizes exceed the capacity of a single disk. You may also
specify multiple locations for backup as well as the order they are recorded to.
The XVR backs up video data using a proprietary compression format that can only be read by the XVR Backup Program. This
ensures the integrity of the data.
Throughout the backup process the XVR will continue recording without interruption. This is the result of the tremendous multiplexing
power of the XVR unit which allows it to perform virtually all functions without disrupting the recording process.
The XVR unit uses Windows® XP® Embedded running Nero® Express 6.0 to write data to the DVD-ROM Drive. This solution allows
the XVR software to read and write data to the DVD-ROM Drive without the requirement of formatting the disk first.
CAUTION: Although many features are available within Nero, it is highly recommended that you do NOT
use any features other than those necessary for the standard backup of video data as outlined in this
section, loss of information or software instability may result.
The Backup Center allows you to back up recorded video data from multiple dates and times to one or more locations including the
DVD-ROM drive, Network Storage Locations, and External Hard Drives.
