♦Overlapping Timer settings

When Timer settings overlap, the unit will give priority to the higher-numbered program.

Example #1

•Program #1 is set for 14:00 to 17:00 with a recording interval of 2.5F.

•Program #2 is set for 15:00 to 16:00 with recording inter- val of 5F.

Under this condition, the unit will give priority to Program #2 for the duration of the overlapping period, from 15:00 to 16:00. The unit will operate as shown in the chart below.

Example 1)

14:00	15:00	16:00	17:00
In Program #1, recording is set for every
2.5F, from 14:00 to 17:00.		2.5F
In Program #2, recording is set for
		5F
every 5F, from 15:00 to 16:00.

In this situation, the unit gives priority to the higher-numbered Program #2.

14:00	15:00	16:00	17:00
Actual recording will occur as follows.
	2.5F	5F	2.5F

Setting for the prioritized Program #2.

Example #2

•Program #1 is set for 14:00 to 17:00 with a recording interval of 2.5F.

•Program #2 is set for 15:00 to 16:00 with the SKIP setting.

Again, the unit will give priority to Program #2 for the duration of the overlapping period. As shown in the illustration below, the unit will activate the Skip setting from 15:00 to 16:00.

Example 2)

14:00	15:00	16:00	17:00
In Program #1, recording is set for
every 2.5F, from 14:00 to 17:00.		2.5F
In Program #2, the SKIP setting is
		SKIP
entered for 15:00 to 16:00.

In this situation, the unit gives priority to the higher-numbered Program #2.

14:00	15:00		16:00	17:00
			NO
Actual recording	2.5F			2.5F
		RECORDING!

Setting for the prioritized Program #2.

If TIMER REC is used while the unit is operating under the PRE A-REC setting, the unit will record

images using the conditions established in the PRE A-REC setting even if there is no ALARM signal at the start of recording.

♦M-DET APPLICATION setting

When a timer reservation is made while the motion detec- tion function is effective, the operation of the motion detec- tion function during execution of timer reservation can be set individually by camera operation and energization state.

When “POWER” has been selected as the op- eration setting in the <TIMER PROGRAM> menu,

the effectiveness of the execution of the motion de- tection function during the specified time in power ON state is set.

Example: Set “ON” as the <M-DET APPLICATION> setting in regard to REC MODE (A).(the default setting is “OFF”).

1.Press the SET UP button to display the <MENU SETTING> menu.

2.Move the cursor ( ) to TIMER PROGRAM then turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right.
