Picture Recording and External Device I/O Settings Page

Use this page to specify the operating condition for the picture recording function. Settings on this page can be used to record still pictures in response to inputs from an external device (sensor, etc.) and based on a predetermined schedule (up to 30,000 picures).

c

Note

Still pictures are recorded on a flash memory card (sold separately). Even if the settings on this page are specified, the picture recording function does not perform if there is no memory card in the VB150 slot.

The data size that can be recorded for a still picture is less than or equal to the size specified in the "Max Picture size". If this amount is exceeded, the picture will not be recorded. The number of pictures that can be recorded depends on flash memory card capacity, however the maximum number of pictures that can be recorded is 30,000.

Picture Recording Common Settings

"Max Picture size"

Sets an upper limit for the picture size. If the picture data size exceeds this value, pictures will not be recorded.

"Max Number of Pictures"

Sets an upper limit for the number of pictures to be recorded. This value can be from 1 to 30,000. The number of recorded pictures can be confirmed on the Administration Tools Settings Page (P.57).

"Auto Deletion of Recorded Pictures" Recorded pictures can automatically be deleted on the specified time after the specified number of days has passed. Check this setting before you start recording pictures.

"No. of days recorded pictures held" Specifies how many days the recorded picture data will be kept in a flash memory card. The recorded data which exceeded the days specified in "No. of days recorded pictures held" is erased daily at the time specified in "Recoreded picture delete time". We recommend that you use VBCollector for saving recorded pictures to a PC (dPicture Recording User's Guide P.13).

Picture files are placed in the /card /images directory.

A Flash Memory card is required for recording pictures.

Files created at yyyy/mm/dd HH:MM:SS:CC (CC = 1/100th sec. units) are placed in the yyyymmdd/HHQQ (QQ = 15-min. units) subdirectory under the name "HHMMSSCC.jpg".

"Recorded picture delete time"

Sets the time at which picture files are deleted.

The data size for a still picture varies depending on the settings for video capture

size and video quality (P.40), and the subject. As a guide, approximately 5-10

Tip

KB is the standard when the video capture size is set to 320x240 and the video

 

 

quality is set to 30 (In some cases this may be exceeded). To check the amount of

 

data for a still picture, select "View" - "Video information" from the menu after you

 

start up the Viewer for PC then check the "Size" value.

 

When recording pictures, it is convenient to do so in combination with

 

VBCollector, which automatically collects recorded still pictures.
