15. Making A Secondary Copy (Sync)
Move to “SYNC” on the main menu and
select it.
Connect the USB external hard drive to the
[USB-Host] combo port of the NVS1501 as
shown in chapter 13.
The “Sync” function synchronizes data between the [NVSPRO] folder of the
NVS1501 and the [NEXTO] folder of an external USB hard drive connected on the
“USB Host” connector via USB cable. This function compares the folders stored in
the [NVSPRO] folder of the NVS1501 and the [NEXTO] folder of an external hard
drive. A new folder will be copied to the external hard drive only if a folder is in
the [NVSPRO] folder of the NVS1501—but not in [NEXTO] folder of an external hard
drive.
A user can select two modes of duplication,
fast copy or safe copy. Highlight the desired
mode using the up/down key, then briefly
press to select the mode. Press and hold the
key [L] to cancel the operation and go back
to the main menu.

Duplicates new folder to external hard drive
Before duplication, the NVS1501 verifies that the copy area of the
external hard drive is safe. If the copy area is not safe, the NVS1501
will automatically search for a new safe area and copy to that area.

Safe Copy
The NVS1501 compares the [NVSPRO] folder
of the internal hard drive and the [NEXTO]
folder of the external hard drive. If there is
data in the [NVSPRO] but not in the [NEXTO]
folder, then the NVS1501 copies those folders
from the internal hard drive to the [NEXTO]
folder of the external hard drive. The end
result is that the two folders—on both the
NVS1501 and the external hard drive—contain
the same information
If an error occurs during the “Sync” function,
the NVS1501 will automatically shut down
and display an error message at the next
power up-- as shown in the figure. Press the
control key upwards to go back to the main
menu.
