Jump Field
The Jump fields can be used to quick search through the cine file. Use the:
# (Image) Entry Field
The image number entry field is used to enter an image number, in the cine file, to jump to.
R Button
The 'R' or rewind button is used to rewind the cine file. If the Limit to Range mode is:
· Selected, the cine file rewinds to the Mark-In point specified by the end-user during the
edit cine process.
· Not selected, the cine file rewinds back to the first image of the full cine file.
Trig Button
The Trig, (trigger), button, when selected, instructs the software to jump to the recorded
image when the trigger signal was detected by the camera, the T
0
frame, if available.
Cine Editor Bar
Many recorded cine files contain a lot of unnecessary information both before and after the actual
motion of interest. The cine editor bar is used to edit unnecessary images from the beginning and
the end of the recorded cine file prior to saving the cine file. Editing the cine file will create smaller
files, reduced to save times, and make reviewing the cine file more interesting.
The blue portion of the line, in the cine editor bar, represents the edited cine file. The number
displayed at the left end of the cine editor bar refers to the first image in the entire cine sequence.
The number at the right end of the bar refers to the last image in the entire cine sequence. The
number just above the editor bar, in the center of the bar, indicates the number of the image
presently being displayed in the playback panel.
The numbers below the editor bar indicate the first and last image numbers of the edited cine file,
respectively.
Zero represents the first image after the moment of trigger was detected by the camera
regardless of what sample rate or resolution settings were set to in the Live Control Panel.
Negative numbers represent pre-trigger frames and positive numbers represent post trigger
frames.
Mark-In/Mark Out Buttons
The Mark-In button, when selected, defines the new starting point of the selected cine file,
while the Mark-Out button defines the new end point of the selected cine file.
