Recording video sequences
The main purpose of the FX80 is to provide a real-time video feed from the chosen location on the fishing net. The Record function allows you to record the video feed received by the camera.
Context
Before you start recording, make sure that you have defined where you wish to store the data files. We recommend that you set up all the necessary recording parameters before you start data recording. The Video dialog box allows you to control the file locations and file names for the video and screen capture files.
Video data files will normally become very large. If you wish to record large amounts of FX80 data, make sure that you have enough space on your hard disk. Unless your Processor Unit is equipped with a very large disk, we recommend that you save the data to an external storage device. If the FX80 detects that you have less than 500 Mb available on your hard disk, it will automatically stop the recording and provide a message.
The following requirement must be met:
•  The video data recording and playback is operational.
