serial number on the USB drive. This is useful if you are using the same

drive to collect recordings from multiple systems and want to know which

system they came from.

create subfolder for each

channel

If checked, the transfer process creates a sub-folder for each channel and

recorder (within the subfolder for the serial number, if that option is also

selected). Files are copied to their respective folders.

If checked, the file(s) are removed after being copied to the USB drive.

Checking this box makes the transfer a move instead of a copy.

downloaded are not included in subsequent downloads.

the transfer begins. If the drive has an activity indicator light, it flashes during the transfer.

 a. Check the Recording list for each channel and the Recorded Files list for each recorder to verify if

there are files that have yet to be copied.

 b.
