6.1.1 LIVE PRE Display
The LIVE PRE, (live image preview, waiting for pre-trigger) mode, is the operational state the camera
will start up in when it is first powered on. What this means is the camera displays a live image on an
attached monitor or the camera's LCD display, but is not yet recording any image data or frames to
the camera memory buffer.
In this state the user can:
· View a live image to focus.
· Examine the recording duration time and the number of frames that will be recorded within the
recording time frame.
· Select various recording parameters.
· Determine if any image area is over exposed.
· Change the operational state of the camera.
