Hikvision NVR (DS-7604NI-SE) and automatic backups

[collaredkeeper 0]

Hello CCTV Forum,

 

I was wondering if it is possible to have automatically scheduled backups to an external HDD using a Hikvision 4 channel NVR (DS-7604NI-SE). I have 3 x Hikvision 3mp EXIR Bullet Network Camera (DS-2CD2232-I5) and I am really enjoying the setup, except backing up manually has been very time consuming. My project requires 1080p video so for the limited 2000 events (or about 12 days for the 3 cameras) it takes about 12 hours or transfer time.

 

This isn't really the issue, but the project site is about 2 hours drive away and I was wondering if there was any option to have scheduled backups to an external HDD, so I can leave the external HDD within the enclosure and just pick it up once a week to transfer files. I could not find any settings using the manual or free mock GUI software, so wanted to ask the forums.

 

Thanks!

Tony
