Once you have given the video clip a file name, highlight the Start button and press the button. The confirmation
screen displaying data size will appear. When the storage device does not have enough space, the DVR will ask if you

the
button to continue clip copy.

NOTE: Only 4.7GB DVD media is available. To clip copy video on DVD media using remaining space, the size
of previously recorded data on the DVD media should be less than 4GB.
Select the Full Erase option when erasing recorded data on DVD media, otherwise the media will not
operate properly when rewritten.
The file size for clip copy is limited to 30GB. When copying video clips larger than 2GB, the video clips
will be save in units of 2GB. For example, 3 individual 2GB files will be created when saving a 6GB video
clip. However, the file size for the One-Touch Clip Copy is limited to 2GB.
You can use other functions on the DVR while video is being backed up. To do this, highlight the Close button and
press the
button. You can return to the Clip-Copy screen at any time to check the progress.
You do not need to install any special software on your personal computer to review the video clips. Refer to REVO
Remote Pro manual for instructions on how to review video clips you have copied.
NOTE: During Clip Copy, you cannot shut the system down, clear data on the storage device, or format the
storage device.
CAUTION: Do NOT disconnect the USB cable or the power from the external drive while copying
video clips. If the external drive is shut down or the USB cable is disconnected while
copying video clips, THE DVR SYSTEM MAY NOT WORK NORMALLY OR THE EXTERNAL
DRIVE COULD BE DAMAGED, and you will get an error message the next time you try
to copy video clips. You will need to power down the DVR and restart it to get rid of the
error message. Once the file system of the USB hard disk drive has been corrupted, this
error message cannot be dismissed. Even after restarting the DVR it may automatically
restart while preparing to clip copy. You must recover the file system using the recovery
program, or you must reformat the hard disk drive.
