Special Record Setups
Time lapse recording
Time lapse can be a useful recording option when studying changes in a subject over a long period of
time such as in large scale building projects or scientific studies or even to create artistic animations.
In this option a recording can be set up to capture from one of six time lapse settings.
They are:
1 frame per second,
1 frame per 2 seconds,
1 frame per 5 seconds,
every 4
th
frame,
every other frame
or 1 frame per trigger. The trigger connection is using the GPI interface.
Composite or DV25 sources can be used.
Note:
This feature cannot be used with HDV sources.
Note:
This mode is not saved when power is interrupted.
Note:
A new clip is only created at the beginning of a time lapse recording.
Pre-trigger Record Memory
When this option is enabled the recorder is always in a record-ready mode when it is not playing. In
this mode it is continuously storing live video data in its internal buffer which is 8 seconds in length.
When a recording is started the last 8 seconds of video prior to the record trigger already exists and is
then stored to disk before the rest of the video is captured.
Note:
This mode is not saved when power is interrupted.
Power on auto record
If this option is enabled when the unit is powered on the recorder will begin recording immediately.
The current BIN and the last settings used before the recorder was switched off will be used for the
next recording.
