NOTE
During Clip Copy, you cannot shut the system down, clear data on the storage device, or format the
storage device.
NOTE
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.

NOTE
The video signal has a time difference of 1/50 second (1/60 second for NTSC) between odd and even
fields because it is composed of 50 interlaced fields per second (60 fields for NTSC). When recording
video with Very High (D1) resolution, video is made up of frame units combining two fields – one odd
field and one event field. This can cause horizontal scan lines or flashes in areas with motion because
of the time difference between the two fields. Turning on the de-interlace filter provides clearer video
by eliminating these horizontal scan lines and flashes.
NOTE
The Camera Menu can also be displayed by clicking the right mouse button on the screen while in the
