4.3 Remote (Network) Backup
The steps for backing up a file over a network connection are essentially the same. You
will be prompted to enter a name for the backup file, and confirm the folder you wish to
send it to.
4.4 Converting an IRF Backup file to an AVI format
The IRF file format used for backups from your DVR is very efficient. A copy of the IRF file
player is included on the USB flash drive each time a backup is done. This will allow
greater portability for those who may not have an IRF player on their PC. Another way to
increase portability is to convert your backup file to an AVI format. An AVI file is easily
read by most media players, and can be e-mailed as an attachment or copied to a variety of
digital storage devices.
Open the file IRF to AVI.exe located inside the AVI Converter folder on the included CD,
to get the screen in Fig.1., click on OPEN IRF (Note: The IRF to AVI.exe file can be copied
to your PC for future convenience sake.)
