Backing up Video Data
Backup Overview
The Backup Center allows you to back up recorded video data from multiple dates and
times to one or more locations including the DVD-RW drive, Network Storage Locations,
and External Hard Drives.
The recorder can easily backup important video data to an internal or external media
location. The most commonly used forms of this are CD-R/RWs, External USB or
FireWire Hard Drives, and Network Drives. Every recorder comes equipped with a DVD-
RW drive, USB port, and Network Adapter.
The recorder is capable of performing a backup to multiple CD/DVDs when the file sizes
exceed the capacity of a single disk. You may also specify multiple locations for backup
as well as the order they are recorded to.
The recorder backs up video data using a proprietary compression format that can only
be read by the Fusion Backup Program. This ensures the integrity of the data.
Throughout the backup process the recorder will continue recording without
interruption. This is the result of the tremendous multiplexing power of the recorder,
which allows it to perform virtually all functions without disrupting the recording process.
