Recording in Loop Mode
Loop mode allows you to save a video segment of a pre-defined duration by
hitting the TAG soft key on the POV.1 Recorder or the REC/TAG button
on the remote control. Loop mode makes it easy to leave the POV.1 in
recording mode all day, and just save the best hour or two’s worth of video
on the SD card.
In Loop record mode the POV.1 records a continuous loop of video clips that
are all of the same duration. For example, if the POV.1 is set to record 3
minute loops, it will record a series of 3 minute loops for as long as the unit
is in Loop record mode. Then, when something happens that you want to
save you simply press TAG or REC/TAG to save that loop.
In order to make sure you don’t miss any of the action, Loop mode will also
grab more than one loop if you Tag a loop near the beginning or end of a
loop. Here’s how it works:
• If you press the TAG soft key on the POV.1 Recorder or the REC/TAG
button on the remote control during the first third of a loop the previous
loop and the current loop will be saved
• If you press TAG soft key or the REC/TAG button during the middle
third of a loop only the current loop will be saved
• If you press the TAG soft key or the REC/TAG button during the last
third of a loop the next loop and the current loop will be saved
For example, if you have the POV.1 set to record 3 minute loops and press
TAG or REC/TAG during the first minute of the loop, the previous 3
minute loop will be saved in addition to the current loop for a total of six
minutes of video. Similarly, if you press TAG or REC/TAG during the last
minute of the loop both the current loop and the next loop will be saved.
If you don’t Tag anything the old loops are discarded to make room for new
video loops.
The default mode for the POV.1 Recorder is Clip mode. To switch from Clip
mode to Loop mode:
1. Press the SETTINGS button on the main unit and then press the NXT
soft key (SOFT KEY 3) until Record Mode appears in the display.
2. Press the SELECT soft key and then the NXT soft key until Loop
appears in the display.
