FUTURO
Advanced Photo Recording
When FUTURO-SD4 is equipped with an optional FUTURO-SD-Card and a doorstation camera
detects a significant motion, the monitor records a short video clip onto the FUTURO-SD-Card.
This footage can be also viewed on a computer and still images can be made from the video
footage and saved as jpeg images. Motion recording is usually triggered when movement is
detected in front of the camera in a well lit area.
Note : When the system is recording video in Advance Photo Recording mode, the Green LED will
blink as it records.
Note : When more than one doorstations are installed with FUTURO-CPU4,
the Advanced photo recording function is only available from the doorstation
which is connected to the CAMERA#1 position of the FUTURO-CPU4.
