the file has been successfully exported to the archive device and the exported file is

PoE setup
It is important when installing IP cameras to calculate the total power consumption
required so that it is less than the power budget of the recorder switches. The recorder
lets you easily track on-screen the current and remaining power consumption for all
cameras directly connected to its switches. See Figure 24 on page 71.
