The Capture Interval is the time between capture events once the Start Minutes
value is reached. For hourly pictures a value of 60 can be entered. If a value
of 0 is entered, (not recommended) the Image Interval time will apply to still
images and video of the specified duration will be captured repeatedly.
The following table summarizes all the parameters associated with the Self
Timed Capture.

Capture To
Memory Card • CARD

memory card.
Maximum
Memory Size
0 to 65535
This is the allowable space on the memory card that will be reserved
for Still Images taken by this Self Timed Capture. The value is in
Megabytes. A value of 1000 will reserve 1000 Mbytes. A value of 0
will have the camera automatically allocate the memory.
Management
Type Options • Fill and Stop
• Ring Memory
There are 2 methods of managing files on the memory card:
• Fill and Stop will stop recording additional images once the
memory card is full or the allocated memory size is reached.
• Ring Memory management will start deleting the oldest files once
the memory card is full or the allocated memory size is reached.
Still Image

• Settings #2
Still Images for this Self Timed Capture can use 1 of 2 settings.
Settings #1 and Settings #2 can be setup with various banner,
resolution and compression values. Refer to Section 7.8.
Main Folder
Name
Read Only Field
This is a read only field. The Name of the Main Folder where the still
image files will be stored (SelfTimed1Still).
Sub Folder
Options
• Year_Month_
Day_Taken
• Year_Month_
Taken
An option is given to store images in a subfolder named by
Year_Month or Year_Month_Day. Selecting the Year_Month_Day
option will have some performance advantages when a large number of
images are taken. Reducing the number of files in a folder will speed
up the storing and file management process. Speed advantages are
only noticeable if the number of files in the Year_Month folder will
exceed 1000.
