Camera 393
motionTimeOut (Camera.motionTimeOut property)
public motionTimeOut : Number [read-only]
The number of milliseconds between the time the camera stops detecting motion and the
time
Camera.onActivity (false) is invoked. The default value is 2000 (2 seconds).
To set this value, use
Camera.setMotionLevel().
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 6
Example
In the following example, the ProgressBar instance changes its halo theme color when the
activity level falls below the motion level. You can set the number of seconds for the
motionTimeout property using a NumericStepper instance. Create a new video instance by
selecting New Video from the Library options menu. Add an instance to the Stage and give it
the instance name
my_video. Add a Label component instance to the Stage and give it the
instance name motionLevel_lbl, a NumericStepper with the instance name
motionTimeOut_nstep, and a ProgressBar with the instance name motion_pb. Then add the
following ActionScript to Frame 1 of the Timeline:
var motionLevel_lbl:mx.controls.Label;
var motion_pb:mx.controls.ProgressBar;
var motionTimeOut_nstep:mx.controls.NumericStepper;
var my_cam:Camera = Camera.get();
var my_video:Video;
my_video.attachVideo(my_cam);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
motionLevel_lbl.text = "activityLevel: "+my_cam.activityLevel;
};
motion_pb.indeterminate = true;
my_cam.onActivity = function(isActive:Boolean) {
if (isActive) {
motion_pb.setStyle("themeColor", "haloGreen");
motion_pb.label = "Motion is above "+my_cam.motionLevel;
} else {
motion_pb.setStyle("themeColor", "haloOrange");
motion_pb.label = "Motion is below "+my_cam.motionLevel;
}
};
function changeMotionTimeOut() {
my_cam.setMotionLevel(my_cam.motionLevel, motionTimeOut_nstep.value
1000);
}
motionTimeOut_nstep.addEventListener("change", changeMotionTimeOut);
motionTimeOut_nstep.value = my_cam.motionTimeOut/1000;
