Memory Card Operations (unmount status)
(1) [Mount/Unmount]
In unmount status, [Mount] will appear. Click [Mount]
to mount the memory card.
Note
microSD, microSDHC, and microSDXC memory cards can be
used with the camera.
When a memory card is inserted in the card slot, it is mounted
automatically. It is also mounted automatically if inserted in the
camera at the time of booting.
For inserting and removing the memory card, see "Installation
Guide" > "Using a Memory Card".
(2) [Operation Settings]
Set write operations to the memory card to [Save Log]
or [Save Logs and Videos].
Note
• The following settings and operations will record video on a
memory card.
- When a network error occurs during recording-mode stream
- When uploading fails
- When [Video Record Action] in the [Event] menu (p. 60) is
set to [Record to Memory Card], and an event (volume
detection, external device input or timer) setting is enabled
and [Enable] is selected for [Video Record]
- When video is recorded due to an intelligent function event
occurrence (p. 103)
- When manually recorded to memory card from the Admin
Viewer (p. 147)
• New files cannot be saved to the memory card if there is no free
space.
(3) [Video Format]
Select the [JPEG] or [H.264(1)] video format to make
recordings to a memory card. Video is recorded with
the settings defined under [Video] > [H.264(1)] (p. 50).
[H.264(2)] cannot be used. Video is recorded in this
format when [Record to Memory Card] is selected in
[Event] > [Video Record Action] (p. 60).
Note
• When [JPEG] is selected in [Video Format] and an upload error
occurs, the frame rate of video recorded in JPEG format is
always 1 fps.
• When a network error occurs during recording-mode stream,
video is saved in the JPEG format regardless of the [Video
Format] setting (the frame rate is fixed at 1 fps).
• Video size and quality of the recorded video are made
according to the settings in the [Video] menu.
(4) [Pre-event Buffer (number of frames)] / [Pre-event
Buffer (sec)]
Enter the number of frames or seconds of video to be
buffered before the event. The maximum amount is
number of frames for a [JPEG] selection and number
of seconds for an [H.264(1)] selection in [Video
Format].
(5) [Post-event Buffer (number of frames)] / [Post-event
Buffer (sec)]
Enter the number of frames or seconds of video to be
buffered after the event. The maximum amount is
number of frames for a [JPEG] selection and number
of seconds for an [H.264(1)] selection in [Video
Format].
(6) [Overwrite videos]
Select [Enable] or [Disable] for the overwrite setting of
video that is recorded to a memory card when an
event occurs. If you select [Enable], videos recorded
using an event and timer will be overwritten.
Overwriting is performed when the number of videos
that can be stored (100,000 files) for each of events
and timers is exceeded. Overwriting is not performed
when there is insufficient space on the memory card.
Important
• When an H.264 video is saved to a memory card, the
following restrictions apply to [H.264(1)] of [Video] (p. 50).
- Only [Use bit rate control] can be selected for [Bit Rate
Control].
- Only [3072] or less can be selected for [Target Bit Rate
(kbps)].
- Only one of [0.5], [1], and [1.5] can be selected for [I
Frame Interval (sec)].
• Since the [Pre-event Buffer] and [Post-event Buffer] set the
maximum value, it may not be possible to record the
specified number of frames or seconds of video depending
on conditions.
(7) [Format]
Click [Exec] to format the memory card. Formatting
