20.2 Introducing acquisition / recording possibilities 167
20.2.2 Recording sequences in the camera
20.2.2.1 Introduction
Beside the mvPretrigger (p. 167), there are two further mv Acquisition Memory Mode (p. 109) available:
1. mvRecord (p. 109)
which uses frame rate and trigger settings.
2. mvPlayback (p. 109)
which disregards the frame rate and trigger settings and outputs the images as fast as possible (throttling by
"bandwidth setting").
To use mvRecord (p. 109), just
1. set mv Acquisition Memory Mode (p. 109) to mvRecord. (p. 109)
2. Start the camera with "Use" and "Acquire".
The camera will record mv Acquisition Memory Max Frame Count (p. 109) images into the memory.
To use mvPlayback (p. 109), just
1. set mv Acquisition Memory Mode (p. 109) to mvPlayback. (p. 109)
2. Start the camera with "Use" and "Acquire".
The camera will playback (transfer) mv Acquisition Memory Max Frame Count (p. 109) images into the PC mem-
ory.
Note
mv Acquisition Memory Max Frame Count (p. 109) can be increased by reducing the image height.
