Recording Modes - SmartWitness KP1S User Manual

Recording Modes

Normal (Continuous)
Full-time video recording at the selected frame rate, resolution, and quality set by the
KP1S configuration tool software. Recording files will be made for 10 minutes. Once a
10 minute file is made, a new file will begin and so on.
Event (Shock, Panic, Overspeed, & Alarm inputs)
The event recording function will be automatically started by G-sensor, panic button
or alarm. You can set the G-sensor parameters for the unit on your PC using KP1S
config software.
Each event file will contain 20 seconds of footage before, and up to 20 seconds after
an incident. The event file can also be extended by a 2 nd trigger during event
recordings.
When a file is extended by a second trigger, 20 seconds post recording from the
event will be added to the data file with a maximum recording time of 3 minutes. Once
the 3 minutes has been reached, the file will split and a new file will be created. If
there is no event triggered by the camera, video will not be recording for that time.
Dual Mode
Continuous video footage will be recorded at 1 FPS. Event will be triggered and
recorded at the selected frame rate, resolution, and quality set by the KP1S
configuration tool software. When using 2 SD cards, Dual Mode will record the 1 FPS
continuous footage on SD 1 and events on SD 2. If only using 1 SD card, the %
allocated for continuous and event files is selectable using the slider in the
configuration tool software.
SD Auto Format Feature (Optional)
When one of the SD Cards has an error and cannot record, all the cards will be
formatted and all data will be erased. Configuration settings will be backed up.
