Program 10 to 12: Interval, Day
Program 10 will take 1 photo per detection
Program 11 will take 3 photos per detection
Program 12 will take 5 photos per detection
These are Day Programs so it is possible to limit operation based on
the ambient light levels. The minimum gap between bursts is 5
seconds.
Use the Time dial to adjust the frequency of the shots from one shot
every 0.5s (fully anticlockwise) to one shot every 8s (fully clockwise).
Use the Luminosity dial to select the light cut-off threshold; when fully
anticlockwise the camera will fire all of the time, otherwise the PIR will
only operate when the luminosity is greater than the threshold set. If
the dial were to be turned fully clockwise, the camera would only work
in very bright light.
Programs 13 to 24: Video
These programs can be used to record video on compatible cameras. When
motion is detected, the sensor will start video recording and it will then end
recording after a configurable period of time.
There are two variations of every program. The first uses half-press shutter
commands to start and stop video recording. These programs are for use with
Canon cameras that have the Magic Lantern firmware installed. They require
the Magic Lantern function enabled that starts/stops video recording with a
half-press of the shutter button. Please note that this function is not available
in all versions of Magic Lantern.
The second variation of each program uses full-press shutter commands to
start and stop video recording. These programs are for use with cameras that
allow the shutter press command to be used to start and stop video recording.
"Fixed Duration" Programs allow the user to explicitly set a video recoding
duration via the Time Dial.
"Minimum Duration" Programs allow the user to set a minimum video length
via the Time Dial. If motion is detected during a recording, the video length is
extended by the minimum duration time. For example, if the minimum duration
time is 10 seconds and motion is detected 8 seconds into a recording, the
recording length will be extend to 8s + 10s = 18s in total. This ensures that
camera continues to record for as long as a subject is in front of the sensor.
