Recording Video
Typically when installing a DVR, one will congure the unit to record 24/7 or more commonly, to record only when movement is detected on a particular camera. A small indicator is shown on each video screen, identifying the recording mode for that camera: M- Motion recording, S- Scheduled recording, R- manual Recording. A small red square in the video window also indicates that recording is occurring. Unless you have specically congured your DVR to be manually activated by pressing “REC” button, we advise that you do not use that button unless you have a clear view of a video screen and can visually conrm, if recording is in progress or not. Pressing the “REC” button while the DVR is recording video will CANCEL the current recording. Pushing the “REC” button while no recording is in progress, will activate recording on all channels congured to allow manual recording. Generally it is better to trust your DVR to record video based upon the settings you’ve established and tested during setup.

• During Video playback, two times are displayed on the top of the screen. The rst time is the
current time, the second time is the time that the video currently playing, was recorded.
Exporting / Backing Up Recorded Video
Specify a segment of video from one or more cameras for export, and saving the video to a USB Memory Key or CD/DVD Disc
• After locating the video you wish to export, make a note of the start and end time of the
video segment. Navigate to the “BACKUP” menu, and choose “USB BACKUP” or “CD BACKUP”. Alternatively you can also press the button on the remote control.
• Insert the USB key or CDR / DVR-R / DVD+R media to backup the video onto.
Press choosing either “USB BACKUP” or “CD BACKUP”
(Note: The optical drive is located behind a door on the left side of the DVR, this must be open for the optical drive to accept and eject discs.)
• Use the arrow keys to navigate to specify the starting and ending times of the desired
video segment as well as the desired cameras to export.
• Choose the desired video format for the export. .AVI les are playable by many 3rd party video
players on the market, but will save each video channel as an individual le. .MP4 Format will include a .exe video player on the CD or USB device allowing authenticated playback of multi-camera video on any Windows PC.
• Choose “Start” and the video export process will begin.
• For CD or DVD video exports, the export process is complete when
the CD or DVD drive ejects the disc.
• When exporting video to USB, for best results we suggest waiting an ADDITIONAL 60 seconds after the backup screen
clears, indicating completion of the backup process. This will ensure the DVR has had sufcient time to nish the backup writing process.
TIP: If you insert the USB memory key into a PC and no les can be located, or the video les appear corrupted, the USB key was likely removed prematurely during the backup process.
