Set Sensor Event Recording
Step 5: Set Additional Options (VB-C500VD, VB-C500D, VB-C60, VB-C300)
To use the Exposure, White Balance, Shade Control, and/or Focus settings on the [Camera Control] Panel,
check the corresponding check box.
Note
The additional options are available with VB-C500VD/VB-C500D/VB-C60/VB-C300. [Smart Shade
Control] is available with the VB-C500VD/VB-C500D/VB-C60. Additionally, Focus is not available for the
VB-C500VD/VB-C500D.
If [Exposure] is selected, the [Exposure Compensation] option is set to [Not Specified].
Step 6: Set frame rate and pre and post event recording duration
In the [Record Video At] field:
1. [Max. Frame Rate] - select a maximum frame rate for recorded video from the drop-down menu, or enter a
value from the keyboard. Choose from 0.1 to 30 frames per second (5 is the default).
Note
The frame rate specified is the frame rate that the Storage Server will attempt to record, and may not be
the actual frame rate used for recording video. Factors such as the number of Viewers, the number of
Camera Servers used, network traffic and load on the Camera Server and the Storage Server may reduce
the actual frame rate recorded.
While the [Resolution] is set to [MPEG-4], the frame rate drop-down menu is gray out. However, the video
is recorded at the frame rate specified in the VB-C500VD/VB-C500D/VB-C60 setting page at that point.
2. [Record for __ sec. before event] - enter a number of seconds for the amount of recording time before the
event occurs (up to a maximum of 30 seconds).
Note
If [Continuously at Max.] is also set, [Record for __ sec. before event] is not available.
If [Record for __ sec. before event] is selected, it will take approximately 10 seconds after event
occurrence until its display in the viewer.
