Chapter 4: Phantom Software

41

After pressing this button, the camera’s internal 
mechanical shutter will close, and a progress meter 
will be displayed (bottom of the image window). 
When completed the shutter re-opens, and the 
camera is ready for shooting.

The first of these key features is the option to 
enable the ‘Start/End of recording actions’ to be 
performed automatically at the beginning or end of 
a shot. The most common ones are:

 

•

‘Auto save to CineFlash/CardFlash;’ this 
feature saves a user-specified portion of a 
clip to the Phantom CineFlash immediately 
after recording.

 

•

‘Auto play Video Out’ begins playback after 
recording. The range marked under ‘Auto 
play Video Out’ affects both playback and 
saving to the Phantom CineFlash.

 

•

‘Restart Recording,’ when enabled, 
automatically restarts the recording process 
after the auto actions have been performed.

Key Advanced Settings

When ‘Restart Recording’ is enabled PCC 
does not provide any user confirmation 
before the clip is erased from RAM and 
starts recording again.
This feature should be used with care!

‘External Sync’ instructs the camera to utilize one 
of the following three frame sync clock sources:

 

-

Internal - instructs the camera to utilize its’ 
internal crystal oscillator to drive the camera’s 
‘Speed’ (sample / frame rate).

 

-

External - should be selected when an 
externally supplied frame sync clock pulse is 
supplied to drive the camera’s sample rate. 

 

-

IRIG - should be selected when an IRIG-B signal 
is supplied to drive the camera’s sample rate.
