[. . . ] 30) Execution Click [Start] to execute the backup process. Repeat the process from to to backup multiple cameras. For backup of a large number of cameras, it is recommended to read multiple camera information from a camera specification file, which can save time. The backup process using a camera specification file is described in the next section. 7 Backup Tool Operating Procedure Upon completion of the backup process, the results are displayed in the log list dialog box. For more information about the logs, please refer to section 2. 7 (page 14). Note If a backup file is saved as the same name as the log file, the log information will be added to the backup file. So, don't use the same name for backup files as the log file. The log file name is originally set to [VBC300BK. log]. 8 Backup Tool Operating Procedure 2. 5. Read Camera Information from Camera Specification File For backup of multiple cameras, it is reccomended to read camera information from a camera specification file.

Camera specification files need to be created in advance. (see page 10) Click the [Add from a Camera Specification File] button to select a CSV file you created, and the camera information will be read and added to the camera information list. A sample of camera specification file is being stored in Backup Tool, for your reference.
