Recording and Playback
Gocator sensors have the ability to record and replay data in Video Mode or Profile Mode. This feature is
most often used for troubleshooting measurements, but can also be helpful during setup.
Recording and playback are controlled by using commands in the Gocator toolbar.

Recording and Playback commands when Data Source is Replay
New record data is appended to existing replay data unless the sensor configuration has been modified.
To record live data:
1
Toggle the Data Source to Live.
2 Press the Record Button.
When the Data Source is set to Live and recording is enabled, the sensor will store the most recent data as
it runs. Remember to disable recording if you no longer wish to record live data (press the Record Button
again to disable).
3
Press the Snapshot Button or Start Button.
Snapshot will cause a single frame to be recorded. If the Snapshot Button is pressed multiple times, each
snapshot will overwrite the previous snapshot. The Start Button will run the sensor continuously and all
frames will be recorded, up to available memory. When the memory limit is reached, the oldest data will be
discarded.
To replay data:
1 Toggle the Data Source to Replay.
2 Use the Replay Slider, Step Forward, Step Back, or Play buttons to review data.
The Step buttons advance the current replay location by a single frame. The Play Button advances the
replay location continuously, animating the playback. The Pause Button (replaces the Play Button while
playing) can be used to pause the replay at a particular location. The Replay Slider (or Replay Position
Box) can be used to navigate to a specific replay frame.
