Multi Shot Recording (Internal Timer)

As described before, the Multi Shot Recording is an event recording function reacting to an alarm input.

It records the number of images in pre- and post-recording. Pre-recording is the recorded images during standby, prior to the input of the alarm signal.

Post-recording is the recorded images after the input of the alarm signal.

These items let you determine the recording parameters for Multi Shot Recording assigned in the program number menu.
