The Backup Viewer allows you to play back the exported video in its proprietary format. Video saved in
this format is extremely difficult to tamper with and therefore is the ideal solution for situations involving
law enforcement and legal matters. This video cannot be read by any other viewer. The Backup Viewer
operates similar to the Search portion of the recorder software.
For detailed explanations of these functions, refer to the chapter on Search Options in this manual.
