MagInit - Indicates the Phantom CineMag has been detected either during camera power-up,
or when a Phantom CineMag has been inserted onto the camera.
MagScan - Indicates that the Phantom CineMag is running through it power-up, self-
diagnostics routines.
MagReady - Indicates that the Phantom CineMag has passed its power-up, self-diagnostics
routines.
MagErase - Indicates that the Phantom CineMag has been instructed to erase its contents,
and is performing the erasure procedure.
Number of Takes
This field indicates the number of takes or cine files, (movies), recorded to the Phantom CineMag.
As takes are recorded the Number of Takes field increments.
Memory Usage
This field indicates the amount of bytes used to store recorded frames. As takes are recorded the
Memory Usage field increments.
Memory Size
This field indicates the total number of bytes, or the memory size, of the Phantom CineMag.
Resolution
This field indicates the active pixel area, (Width x Height), of the sensor defined by the user.
Sample Rate
This field specifies the rate the Phantom camera will capture or record image data, (frames), into
the camera's memory.
Shutter Angle
This field shows the current, user defined, Shutter Angle or exposure setting of the camera.
Memory Buffer Graphical Representation
The graphical representation of the camera's memory buffer, which acts as a memory gauge will
display a Mark In Point, (the vertical line on the far left of the line), and a Mark Out Point, (the
vertical line on the far right of the line). The Recording to Memory Location Indicator, (the up-
arrow), will be placed just below the Mark In Point. The trigger point, (T), indicates the image, or
frame, the trigger signal was sent to and detected by the camera.
Image Location Reference Point
The up-arrow is a graphical representation of the stored memory location of the displayed image
within the camera's DRAM or non-volatile Flash location within an attached Phantom CineMag.
Maximum Recording Time
This field indicates the total length of recording time. The recording duration is based on the
amount of memory in the camera, along with the resolution and sample rate settings. This field
will change based on these variables.
Maximum Recordable Frames
This field indicates how many images or frames will be recorded within the Duration time. This
field will also change based on how the amount of memory in the camera, and how the resolution,
and sample rate are set and will change accordingly.
