Operation
Overview
The Capture recorder has two options for storage: local storage and storing on a
remote server.
Local Storage
For local storage, the device records a presentation either on the provided MMC card
or on a USB storage device inserted in the front or rear USB port. (Either storage
device must be formatted for FAT32.) Before starting, the front panel controls are
used to specify where the file is to be saved (the default is the MMC card).
When the presentation is about to begin, the presenter simply presses the REC button;
when finished presses STOP; and the video file (for example,
CAPTURE-HD61ecf4_2011-10-17_09_43_29.ts) is saved in the specified location.
After the front panel indicates that the recording is done, the media can be removed, if
desired, and made available for other presentations.
Storing on Remote Server
The presentation can also be saved to local media, and then uploaded via FTP to a
remote server. Distribution is then controlled by FTP settings from the SIMPL
Windows symbol, the optional CAPTURE-TPMC-4SM touch screen, or Fusion RV.
When the Capture recorder is used in conjunction with Fusion RV, the presentation is
automatically transferred via FTP to a “Watch” directory that Fusion RV monitors.
When Fusion RV detects the new file, it takes the file and processes it for distribution.
