Enter the desired value and press 5 to conclude the
process.
Note that the maximum value of Pre-trigger Time is 9

Additional Considerations
The implementation of event sound recordings involves the
interaction of parameters from both the Event History and
Sound tabs as follows:
Event Time History Setup
• Minimum Duration
• Continuation Period
Sound Setup
• Snapshot Time
• Pre-Trigger Time
Several examples of how these parameters effect the length
of the sound recording are presented in the following
diagrams.
