CONTINUOUS RECORD
This is the “normal” recording mode. The camera continuously records frames at the current sensor frame rate.
You can limit each recording to a specific amount of frames using the Limit Recording to setting.
INTERNAL TIMELAPSE TIMER
In this mode, the camera periodically records the specified number of frames at a specified interval. The current
sensor frame rate determines the timing of the frames per pulse.
You can limit each recording to a specific amount of frames using the Limit Recording to setting.
You can also use the Timer/Trigger Settings to set a specific amount of frames to be captured during an in-
terval of 1–3,599 seconds. When using the Timer/Trigger Settings, the trigger is the REC key or any key that
is programmed to start recording. The Interval setting specifies the frequency at which the frame or group of
frames is captured.
For example, in Internal Timelapse Timer mode, you can choose to record a total amount of 1000 frames, and
take 1 frame every 4.67 seconds. After you’ve recorded 1000 frames (which takes 4,670.00 seconds), the re-
cording process stops.
While recording in this mode, you can see how many frames you’ve recorded out of the total amount of frames
on the overlay.
EXTERNAL FRAME TRIGGER
In this mode, the camera records the specified number of frames for each external trigger. This mode limits the
REDCODE based on sustainable record rates.
You can limit each recording to a specific amount of frames using the Limit Recording to setting.
You can also use the Timer/Trigger Settings to set a specific amount of frames to be captured during a pulse
of the trigger. When using the Timer/Trigger Settings, the action Record: External Frame Trigger is used for the
external trigger and may be mapped to any user key or camera input.
While recording in this mode, you can see how many frames you’ve recorded out of the total amount of frames
on the overlay.
NOTE:
There may be a delay between receiving the external trigger and capturing the next frame(s). This delay
may be as long 1 frame period at the current sensor frame rate. To achieve completely synchronized frames to
an external trigger you must set
Sensor Sync Mode
to
MoCo
. For more information about setting the Sensor Sync
Mode, go to
.
SPEED RAMP MODE
NOTE:
The Ramp Settings are not accessible on any EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET-X DRAGON.
This mode lets you program the current sensor frame rate to transition to a target sensor frame rate during
recording.
1. Select
Speed Ramp Mode
from the
Recording Mode
drop-down menu.
2. Use the
Limit Recording to fields
to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).
3. Select a ramp target:
‒
Ramp A/B/C/D
: Each ramp target is tied to a specific Target/Duration combination.
‒
Ramp Reset
: Allows you to ramp to the starting frame rate with the specified Duration.
4. Set the
Target
frame rate.
5. Set the
Duration
. This is how long it takes the camera to transition from your current frame rate to the target
frame rate.
6. Go to
Settings
>
Setup
>
Keys
and program one of the following keys to start the speed ramp:
‒
Record: Start Speed Ramp A/B/C/D
‒
Record: Start Speed Ramp Reset
7. Start recording.
