4.3.21 Camera Behaviour
Figure 93: Camera Behaviour Menu
For each camera, the operation for each of the modes needs to be defined (i.e. up to four lots of
settings for each camera).
For each Mode / Camera combination, there are three lots of settings that require configuration:
Video Capture: Defines the rules for recording the currently selected camera during the
currently selected mode.
Event Triggers: Defines what will trigger this camera channel for the purpose of enhancing /
increasing recording and / or triggering an alarm call to the CMS.
Event Response: Defines what actions the FastTrace system will take if an alarm is triggered on
this camera channel during the currently selected Mode.
The Camera Recording System Information provides some feedback to the installer as to the
current capability of the unit.
Compression Capacity: This shows the percentage used of the total recording capacity
(images per second) of the unit. i.e. if this is at 50%, then half the total images per second are
being used for recording.
Recording Capacity: This provides an estimate of the number of days recording possible based
on the normal recording rates configured in the unit. If a great deal of event recording is being
used, then this will over-estimate the number of days of recording that can be stored on the unit.
Use the Select Mode from List option to choose which Mode is to be configured, then choose
the camera to configure from Select Camera from List. Cameras that have been previously
configured via Connected Equipment / Cameras, will have their name displayed in this list.
Important: The maximum recording rate of the FastTrace is 25 ips (PAL) and 30ips
(NTSC) per compression card (at CIF resolution), up to a maximum
recording rate of 100 ips (PAL) and 120 ips (NTSC) using four
compression cards. The rate is an aggregate of all recording channels
and it should be noted that the recording rate of some channels may
slow down during alarm conditions to ensure alarm images are
recorded.
