Frame Buffer
The frame buffer pane allows users configure and view information about the camera's frame buffer.
Take
Acquisition Mode | Label |
---|---|
Standby | STBY |
Recording OR Triggered | Active Take / Total Partitions |
Displays 'STBY' if the camera is not actively recording.
Displays the number of the active take followed by the number of partitions.
Recorded Frames
Shows how many frames have been recorded to the active partition.
If the take has not been triggered and there are pre-trigger frames, this number will reflect the number of recorded frames and then pause once the pre-trigger buffer is full.
Once triggered, this number will resume the count of images recorded to the post-trigger buffer until the take ends.
Partition Size
Shows the total number of frames in the active partition.
Partition button
Partitions the buffer into multiple segments to allow users to capture multiple takes
Clicking on this button will open the partition count window to allow the user to segment the frame buffer into the desired partition count.
Partitioning the memory can help streamline the recording workflow by removing the need to save and/or delete the current take before starting the next, particularly when used in conjunction with the autosave feature.
-
The number of partitions cannot be modified if ANY of the current partitions contain data.
-
All recorded takes must be deleted by the user before partitioning can occur.
