2.5 Creating backups
The backup dialog can be called up easily using the Export button on the top left-hand edge of
the screen. Single-frame export, AVI export and database export are possible. In addition, you
can print out individual frames or send them by e-mail.
There is a difference between local and remote backup. The variations are explained in more
detail below.
2.5.1 Local backup (database export)
A local backup saves the recorded video data from the local system onto external media.
These include USB sticks, CD/DVD or an export to a separate directory.
To export the video data, insert a disc in the DVD burner or attach a USB stick.
Change to Playback mode and activate the cameras to be used for the backup. When doing
so, make sure that only the cameras to be backed up are activated, as otherwise any cameras
not needed will also be backed up.
Specify the time period to be backed up using the selection tool and click the Export button.
The Export dialog is now
started in the Database
export
view and the
archives selected from the
list are displayed. The
selected backup period is
also taken from the client
and updated in the list.
If the operator wishes to
use another name for the
backup,
this can be
entered in the Name of
backup field.
In the Export dialog, select
the drive to be used for the
backup. If the drive is not listed here, you must first set it up in the system configuration
(Database/Storage

Drives) as Backup read & write (see point 3.3.1 on page 69).
