Backup - Q-See QC444 User Manual

The Set button will appear when either
Work Day or Free Day is selected in the
drop-down. This allows you to arrange the
schedule to reflect your business' weekly
schedule.
The Copy and Paste buttons allow you to duplicate a day's settings on another day while the
Default button returns the DVR to recording Motion Detection events 24/7.
Once you have made your settings, select OK to save them and you will be returned to the
Detect menu. Hitting Cancel or right-clicking to exit the menu will not save your changes.
Anti-Dither – This is the length of time that the DVR will delay before recording a motion
event. The delay can be from 0 to 600 seconds.
Latch – This is the "hold time" that the system waits after a motion detection event ends
before resuming motion detection searches. The delay can be set from 10 to 300
seconds (5 minutes).
Show Message – When this is enabled, the system will bring up the Alarm Status window
whenever an event is detected. You can configure this to display when motion, video
loss or masking is detected.
Send E-mail – E-mail notifications can be sent a single e-mail address. Please see
Advanced Network Setup in Section 1.2 of the Remote Monitoring Guide
for instructions on how to set up the e-mail alerts including recipient address.
Record Channel – When one camera detects an event, you can set the DVR to activate
recording on other cameras.
Tour – This will cause the DVR to cycle through selected channels on the display in live view. It
will not affect what is recorded.
Snapshot – The DVR is capable of taking still images which can be sent via e-mail or FTP
(See Advanced Network Setup in Section 1.2 of the Remote Monitoring
Guide for full instructions.)

3.8 BACKUP

This DVR supports backing up files from the hard drive to both an external USB storage
device as well as over a network. Network downloads are covered in the Remote
Monitoring Guide. The USB port on the front of the device is the only port usable for
backing up files.
The Backup menu can be reached through
the Main menu.
The Backup window will display any
connected devices along with available space
and status. If you have a device connected
to the USB port on the side of the DVR and
it does not appear, press the Detect button.
If it still does not appear, then use a different
USB device.
IMPORTANT! USB hard drives must be formatted as FAT 32.
Once an external USB device is detected,
pressing the Backup button will open a new
window allowing you to select which files to
back up. You can select by channel, start and
end times, as well as which type of event;
regular recording, alarm, motion detection or
all of them.
Only files with a check mark in front of
them will be backed up. You can deselect
whichever files you choose or select them all
by selecting the box at the top of the list.
If you need to clear space on your external drive, you can use the Erase button. This will
delete ALL files on that device.
