 RECORDING V.NETWORKS IMAGES

The recording function saves images displayed in the currently active window

     onto a disk.

Images are recorded on a per-window basis. The recording file is stored in
the  folder specified by "Save in" under [View Window] - [Properties] -
[Details]. The  default folder is the folder having the same name as the View
window name  under the folder where the application is installed.

i.e.: (Application installation  folder) \ (View window name).

When recording has completed, a file named *******.rec is created on a disk.

A new file per day is automatically created if the recording carries over into
next day.

For detailed recording setup,see "5. Recording setup" in "CHANGING THE
VIEW WINDOW SETUP" on page 29.

  Procedure

1. Among the currently displayed View windows, click the View window to

be recorded to make it active.

2. Ensure that the title bar of the Record/Play Controller shows the name of

the View window to be recorded, then click the Record button. (If the
Record/Play Controller is not displayed, select [View] - [REC/Play
Controller] to display it.)

3. Recording starts at the same time as the characters "REC" are displayed

on the top right of the View window.
