to one of NVR's USB ports. For more information
Clip Copy, refer to the Clip Copy on page 69.
•• Peripheral Device Connection
Use the USB ports to connect peripherals such
as a USB mouse or a USB printer to the NVR.
You can also use a USB-to-serial converter and
connect multiple text-in devices to the NVR at
the same time. It is also possible to connect a
PostScript™ printer and print stills from video data
stored on the NVR. The NVR supports version 2.0
and above PostScript™ printers. In addition, it is
possible to print color images if you own a color

spectrum. You can ensure clear images at all times
by blocking out the infrared spectrum in high-lighting
conditions and allowing the infrared spectrum to
pass through in low-lighting conditions.

White Balance Options
•• AE Target Gain: Specify exposure compensation's
target gain. Exposure is compensated automatically
based on the specified target gain. Higher the gain,
brighter the images.
•• Local Exposure: Activate Local Exposure. Use
Local Exposure on images that appear too dark due
to backlighting conditions and on images containing
over-exposed sections. Greater the value, clearer
the image. e.g.) Dark parking lot entrances and
gas station entrances at night (Local Exposure
compensates for the bright light coming from
incoming vehicle headlights and makes it possible to
see the license plates).
•• Anti-Flicker: If the lights in the area where the
camera is located use alternating current, specify
the frequency of the lights to minimize flickering.
Matching the frequencies can eliminate flickering
completely. (NTSC: 60Hz, PAL: 50Hz).
•• Preset: Use preconfigured white balance settings.

•• The maximum size limit on Clip Copy files is
30GB. Clip Copying a segment that is more than
2GB in size produces multiple files that are up

•• For USB flash memory devices, the NVR supports
the FAT32 file format only.
Do not disconnect the USB cable or power off the

Doing so can cause the NVR to malfunction or
critically damage the external USB device's file
system. You may be prompted with an error
message when trying to back up on the device.
If so, you will need to restart the NVR. If the
USB hard disk's file system has been damaged,
restarting the NVR will not solve the problem and the
aforementioned error message will continue to be
displayed each time you attempt a backup. If this is
the case, you will need to format the HDD or use a
recovery program to repair the damage to the drive's
file system.

Overlapped Recording
Search
If the system's clock is changed to a point in the past,
overlapping recordings may be produced. Overlapped
recordings have to be searched in segments.
For example, making a recording from 1 o'clock to 5
o'clock, changing the system's clock at 5 o'clock to 3
o'clock, and then continuing to record until 6 o'clock
produces two recordings that overlap between 3
o'clock and 5 o'clock. This results in two segments for
the period between 3 and 5.

Segment 2

When searching overlapped video recordings, you can
choose a specific point in time or a time frame. If you
use the Go to the Date/Time option and select a
point within the overlapped time period (4 o'clock, for
example), you must specify 4 o'clock in which of the
two existing segments.
If you use the Event Log Search or Motion
Detection option and select a time frame within the
overlapped time period (4 o'clock to 5 o'clock,
for example), you must choose between the two
redundant sets of From and To values. Selectable
search ranges are as follows:
•• 4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 1
•• 4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 2
•• 4 o'clock in segment 2 to 5 o'clock in segment 2
