last images, no more than a number equal to “Frames” value. This option is used also to

record in CineMag cines with more images than “Frames” value.

For a brief description of the operational modes defined by the Direct Recording to a

Phantom CineMag feature, see: Functional Descriptions>Phantom CineMag Operational

Modes.

Start/End of recording actions

The End of recording action parameters, listed below, instruct the selected Phantom camera to

perform various tasks immediately after a cine file has been recorded into the camera's

DRAM, including:

Auto Black Reference

When a cine file starts recording, a CSR slot is allocated to the cine file and a black

reference operation is performed with the results being saved into the slot. During the

lifetime of the recording in DRAM, the CSR slot is kept and all images from the cine file

are corrected using the black reference data within. CSR slots are freed when a stored

cine file is specifically deleted or reused when the cine file itself is reused.

For cameras having an attached Phantom CineMag operating in the Live recording mode,

the recording into the Phantom CineMag is delayed until the black reference operation

has completed. All frames saved to the Phantom CineMag will be corrected with the

obtained CSR (Current Session Reference).

NOTE

This automatic CSR, (Current Session Reference), mode is available for Phantom cameras

equipped with the Automatic Shutter feature only.
