Recording in External Standby Mode [External STANDBY]
In this mode, recording starts immediately after receiving a standby signal input. This
mode is used to ensure the time recorded for the standby signal input and start of recording
are the same.
In "Selecting the Recording Mode in [REC] – [MODE]" in 5.4.1 Setting Recording
Parameters, specify the external trigger mode [External STANDBY] to use as the
recording mode. Then click [REC]. The window in Fig. 5-16 is displayed and recording
remains in standby mode until a standby signal is input.
To not record or to stop recording before it is finished, click [REC STOP].
After the standby signal input and recording finishes, the image specified in "Selecting
First Frame to Display" in 5.5 Playing Back Images, is displayed in the Viewer window.
■
Recording in the External Trigger Mode [External TRIG]
This mode records frames before and after the trigger signal input.
In "Selecting the Recording Mode in [REC] – [MODE]" in 5.4.1 Setting Recording
Parameters, specify the external trigger mode [External TRIG] to use as the recording
mode. Then click [REC]. After the window in Fig. 5-16 is displayed and recording starts,
the system waits for a trigger signal. To not record or to stop recording before it is
finished, click [REC STOP].
After the trigger signal input and recording finishes, the image specified in "Selecting First
Frame to Display" in 5.5 Playing Back Images, is displayed in the Viewer window.
Sensor elements generate heat during recording. Therefore, to protect the sensor elements from heat
when recording at speeds of 5Mfps or more, in all recording modes except the internal trigger mode
[Internal], recording is stopped if a trigger signal is not detected within 60 seconds in waiting a
trigger signal. Recording is also stopped if 60 minutes have elapsed since recording started.
In some cases, depending on the ambient temperature, continuous recording, or other factors,
recording may stop to protect the sensor elements from heat when they become hot. Once the
element protection mode starts, recording is disabled until element temperature drops and element
protection is switched OFF.
