Copy/Restore Tab

This Tab is available to all CMT Administrators and to any DVR Administrator that has been given

this level of authority. CMT Administrators are able to access all DVRs on this Tab and DVR

Administrators are able to access the DVRs that are contained within their original group.

The purpose of this Tab is to Back-up the Conguration of DVRs; to Restore the Conguration of a

DVR, and to Copy the Conguration of a DVR to one or more DVRs.

Automatic Copy Restore Point

The two scenarios in which CMT will automatically generate a copy of a DVRs Conguration are:

1. When a DVR is added to CMT a Restore Point will automatically be created. This

Pre-CMT Backup of the DVR’s Conguration will be labeled accordingly in the

Notes Column of the Copy/Restore Tab.

2. When a Firmware upgrade or downgrade is requested, CMT will automatically

create a Back-Up Point prior to beginning the Firmware process. That Automatic

Copy/Restore Point will be held on the Copy/Restore Tab and labeled accordingly

in the Notes Column so it can be easily identied. Refer to the Firmware Tab for

additional information.

Manual Back-UP of Current Conguration

A manual Copy, Restore, or Back-up can also be requested by an Administrator at any time and

is identied by the Comments entered by the Administrator. All Comments are visible in the Notes

Column.

Create a Back-Up Point

The purpose of creating a Back-Up Point is to capture and preserve the Conguration on a particular

DVR. The Conguration includes: Video Standard, Date Format, Browser Settings, Language, Time

Zone, Camera Settings, Alarms/VMD, Time Zones, and System Settings.

Note:

The DVR is not RESET but will be locked during this process.
