. . . . .
RECordLOOP <ON | OFF> If RECLOOP is ON, recording will be continuous.
Note that only the current clip is overwritten. Disk
overwrite will begin when there is only 4 GB of
remaining disk space. Overwrite begins with the
oldest part of the clip.
Default: OFF
PLAY [-P] [playlist] This command switches the unit to Play mode and
plays a previously made recording.
The PLAY command plays back the items in the
optional playlist.The playlist may contain up to 5
clipnames. Clips in the playlist will be played in the
order they appear in the playlist.
Note: Playlist capability can only operate at normal
playback speed.
If a playlist is not entered, the most recently
recorded clip in the current directory will be played.
It the optional -P argument is supplied, the DGy will
be queued for playing but will immediately enter the
Play Pause mode. To start playback from Pause a
PLAY command must be issued. This provides the
ability to set up a play back and to instantly start
playback and is particularly useful in controlling
multiple DGy recorders.
Example: Play the clips named clip1, clip7 and
latest_clip using the PLAY PAUSE mode.
PLAY - P clip1 clip7 latest_clip
PLAY
SYNChronizedPLAY <clipname> <starttime> The SYNChronizedPLAY command is used to
schedule playback of a clip at a specified time. The
start time must be specified using the time format
yyyymmddhhmmss (24-hour time).
Example: Start playback from the beginning of a
clip named Rec227 at 8:15 pm, June 11th 2005.
syncrec Rec227 20050611201500
The SYNChronizedPLAY command is typically
used to synchronize multiple DGy recorders so that
they will perform as a multi-channel playback
system. Before using the DGy in this mode it is
recommended that the real-time clocks of each DGy
be synchronized using either an IRIG or NTS time
reference (synchronizing is then automatic). The
SYNChronizedPLAY command should then be
issued to each machine using the same time
argument.
SYNChronizedSTOP (none) Cancels any queued synchronized command. See
SYNChronizedPLAY and SYNChronizedRECord.
