Capturing Displayed Images
You can capture images displayed on the monitor, and save them as image files in the specified location.
Cautions on saving images
Do not remove the storage media device while images are saved. Doing so may prevent the images from stored properly
or damage DS-L3 or the storage media device.
The CF card indicator of DS-L3 lights up when the CF card is accessed. The access lamp of the USB memory stick lights
up when it is accessed. Watch these indicators to check if they are accessed.
Settings for saving image files
Check the following settings before photographing:
•
Selection of storage location (for saving the image in a media device, server, or PC, or for printing it)
DS-L3 allows you to save the captured image in a storage media device, a FTP server on the network, or the PC
connected by USB, or to output it to a PictBridge-compatible printer for printing. Refer to “13.5.2 Configuring
Capture Function” for the setting.
•
Selection of the storage drive and folder
When you specify storage media for saving images, you need to specify a drive (for storage media) and a folder.
Refer to “8.3.4 Setting Items of the [CAM MENU: SHOT/REC] Screen” for the setting.
•
Setting of the recording mode (live image or full image, file type, and image size)
This setting specifies details of stored images. Refer to “8.3.4 Setting Items of the [CAM MENU: SHOT/REC]
Screen” to specify the setting properly so that images are stored in the desired manner.
Consecutive capture with interval timer
DS-L3 allows you to do “consecutive capture” in which images are captured automatically at intervals. Refer to
“8.2.4 (3) Performing consecutive capture with interval timer” when you do consecutive capture.
Capture sound
You hear a capture sound when you capture an image. Refer to “13.5.5 (3) Setting the capture sound volume” if
you want to change the sound volume setting.
Saving annotations and measurement results
When you have made annotations such as pen drawing and text comments, or measured lengths, angles, or other,
you can save the image with the results of these operations embedded in the image.
For details on the annotation and measurement functions, refer to “Chapter 11 Adding Lines and Annotations to an
Image” and “Chapter 12 On-Screen Measurement”.
