CAPTURING A SNAPSHOT (STILL IMAGE)
All snapshots are saved in a default folder called “images,” which is created automatically on a USB device. You must attach a USB device to the

To capture a snapshot:
1. Attach a USB device to the unit in one of the USB ports.
2. Select a video pane that is displaying video from which you want to capture a snapshot, and then do one of the following:
• Press the Print Scrn key.
• Press the “X” key [or the Quick Export function button ] to display the Quick Export menu (refer to Figure 18).
• Press the “S” key [or the Quick Search function button for 3 seconds] to display the Quick Search menu.
