• Start Recording, Event Frame Rate, Recording Time: Highlight the events
in Start Recording that are supposed to start the recording process. The
Event Frame Rate sets the frame rate for recording a video clip once an
event has been detected. Set the Recording Time (max. five minutes) and
the Recording Time Before Event (optional) as desired.
Make sure that the highlighted events are activated in the Setup Menu >
Event Settings dialog if you intend to use them.
• Retrigger Recording (optional): Highlight the events that are supposed to
extend an ongoing recording process. If one of the selected events occurs,
the camera retriggers recording and continues to record video for the time
specified in Recording Time. This is an optional parameter.
Make sure that the highlighted events are activated in the Setup Menu >
Event Settings dialog if you intend to use them.
• Stop Recording, Recording Time After Stop Event, Recording Dead Time
(optional): Highlight the events in Stop Recording that are supposed to stop
an ongoing recording process. These parameters allow setting the time re-
corded after a Stop Recording event (Recording Time After Stop Event,
max. 5 minutes) and the Recording Dead Time. The Recording Dead Time
prevents new recordings after a Stop Recording event has been detected.
The settings for Stop Recording are optional.
Note that the camera creates a new recording sequence if one of the events
selected in Start Recording occurs.
Make sure that the highlighted events are activated in the Setup Menu >
Event Settings dialog if you intend to use them.
Typical Procedure of Event Recording
• The camera detects one of the events selected in Start Recording.
• The camera triggers the Recording Begin (RB) event.
• The event number is incremented by one.
• The camera stores the event image (Ennnnn.jpg).
• MxPEG clip files with the video and audio information are stored
(Mnnnnn.jpg, with 10 seconds max. recording time each).
• The camera triggers the Recording End (RE) event.
• This completes the recording sequence.
