Searching for device is displayed:
When the device is detected, press ENTER
The BACKUP menu is displayed, and BACKUP BEGIN is highlighted. To change the DATE and TIME use your ENTER button to switch between the menu options, date, and time. Use the UP/DOWN arrow buttons to change the values and the LEFT/RIGHT arrow buttons to change sections. NOTE: You cannot select individual cameras when backing up to CD
Repeat the process for the BACKUP END

(NOTE: a standard CD-R disc is 700MB. The backup must not exceed that amount of disc space)
The backup process will execute and the file will be saved to the CD as an .XVW file.
Refer to pages 112-114 of the ETM manual on how to convert the file from a .XVW to an .AVI, or refer to the Knowledge Base article titled “ETM – Converting exported XVW file to an AVI file.pdf”
