Recorded Frames

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.

info

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.

warning
  • 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.
