The following table shows the Capture Settings defaults:
Table 12: Capture Settings defaults
Note: It is recommended that the Quality and Image Rate for Pre-Event are set to the
same values as Event, to ensure that pre-event video quality is satisfactory.
From the drop-down selection boxes, select the:
Image Quality: Range = 1 to 7, where 1 is the lowest quality and 7 is the highest quality. Quality
6 is approximately equal to VHS quality and quality 7 is approximately equal to SVHS.
Table 13: Quality Value versus Resolution
Image Rate: In Images Per Second (ips). Options range from 0.5 (1 image every 2 seconds) to
25ips (real time). At CIF resolution, a value of 25 images per second is used for ‘real-time’
recording in PAL and 30 ips for real-time recording in NTSC (2CIF = 12PAL / 15NTSC).
Duration: Used with Events, either pre the event trigger or post, depending upon which Capture
Setting is currently being changed. When setting post trigger event duration, the While Event
Active option will cause the FastTrace-R to keep recording images until the time the Event is no
longer active.
Caution: Use the While Event Active option when recording from activity detection triggers
to ensure no activity is missed. (If the capture duration option is used with a time
setting, the recording only continues for that prescribed time from the start of the
activity triggered event which may be less than the total duration of that event.)
Event Triggers
Users can choose from two triggering methods to select how a channel is activated for an alarm
event.
