User-Initiated Recording; Other Menu Options - Canon K-64 User Manual

User-initiated Recording

A manual recording with a duration of one minute can be initiated at the maximum frame
rate. The manual recording is displayed on the Timeline and Live Events Log as 'Manual
Rec. (username)'. This is handy for capturing random events not associated with sensor
recording or outside preset recording times. You must ensure a Storage Server is
associated with the Video Window, otherwise recording will not be possible. This can be
configured by an Administrator in the Configuration and Preferences screen.
To initiate manual recording:
Open the Video Window menu and select 'Record Now (1 minute)'...
The Record Now function records at the maximum frame rate.
Extended recording time will use additional disk space on the
Note
Storage Server. Excessive use of this function should not be
performed without first checking with an administrator.
The Record Now function is only enabled if a Storage Server is
configured for the camera.
Recording will be for approximately one minute. The actual
duration of recorded video may vary depending on settings and
network delays.
