Erase Media
The erase media feature allows you to erase and format media for use with the HVR. Although media can be formatted on a PC, Pelco
recommends that the media be formatted on the HVR to ensure optimal equipment function.
The HVR does not support a weekly or daily backup to CD/DVD media. If you try to format a CD or DVD when the unit is configured for a weekly
or daily backup, a warning message appears. For information about supported media, refer to Appendix B: Supported Media Devices on page 72.
To erase or format media data:
1. Connect or insert the backup media.
2. From the System menu, click the Backup submenu.
3. Click Erase Media.
4. Click OK.
5. Click OK again after the media is formatted.
6. Click Close.
