3.5.3. END Mode
The END trigger mode records the images of a target event right before the REC key is
pressed. This mode is useful when it is hard to know when your target event will take
place. For example, if your camera has a recording capacity of two seconds, it records
images of the event in the memory for two seconds before the REC key is pressed as
shown below.
Recording in END Mode
Follow the below procedure to record in the END trigger mode:
1. As discussed in Section 3.5, make sure that the camera is in the LIVE mode, and
select the END trigger mode.
2. Press the REC READY key on the keypad. The camera is now in the READY
mode. Note that the indication on the screen has turned from [LIVE] to [READY].
3. Press the REC key on the keypad, and the indication on the screen turns to
[ENDLESS]. The camera is now recording the image of the target subject in the
memory going around from end to end repeatedly.
4. At the moment the event of your interest has taken place, press the REC key on
the keypad again. The camera stops recording. The camera has recorded the
event together with the scene right before it. Note the indication on the screen has
turned from [ENDLESS] to [LIVE].
