Function” (

P.6-2) for detailed operating examples.

External Device Input
“Record pictures in response to external inputs”
Tick this option to record pictures when an input is
detected from an external device.
“Record still pictures unconditionally for every external
input event/ Record still pictures for validated external
input events during the Start-Stop times specified below”
Select “Record still pictures unconditionally for every
external input event” if pictures are to be recorded at
any time when an input is received from an external
device. If pictures are to be recorded only during
specified periods, select “Record still pictures for
validated external input events during the Start-Stop
times specified below” and set the start time, day of the
week, etc.
“Start/Stop”
Set the time when picture recording is to start and
when it is to stop.
*“Start” and “Stop” cannot be set to the same time.

Select the day of the week when pictures are to be
recorded. Picture recording will occur on the selected
day of the week for the period from “Start time” to
“Stop time”.
“ON event (OPEN to CLOSE)”
Pictures are recorded when ON events are detected
from an external device.
“OFF event (CLOSE to OPEN)”
Pictures are recorded when OFF events are detected
from an external device.
“Pre-event Recording”/”Post-event Recording”

an event is detected from an external device. There is “Pre-
event Recording”, for recording pictures prior to events from
an external device, and “Post-event Recording”, for recording
pictures following events. Be sure to enter at least one of
these.
If “Pre-event Recording” or “Post-event Recording” are used,
specify the interval between picture recording in 1-sec. units
or 0.1-sec. units, and enter the number of pictures to be
recorded.

When recording pictures, it is convenient to do so in combination with VBCollector,
which automatically collects recorded still pictures (
→
P.6-6).
Note
●
When recording pictures, if you turn off the VB-C10/VB-C10R’s power switch and
then reboot it, all recorded still pictures will be deleted.
●
Depending on the operating status of the VB-C10/VB-C10R, still pictures may not
be recorded according to the specified intervals and the number of pictures to be
recorded. Please check the actual operation after the settings have been made.
