C. TIME-LAPSE CAPTURE
+
Your MicroDirect allows you to set the device to take images
over a defined time period. This is referred to as Time-Lapse.
+
You will first select the number of still images or
Lapse
Num
you want your device to take. This can range from 2
to 999 images.
+
Use the Down button (9) to scroll through the numbers from
0 to 9. When satisfied with the first digit, press the Mode
button (6) to jump to the next digit.
+
Again, using the Down button (9), set that digit.
+
Once the number of still images has been chosen, press the
Mode button (6) to move to the Lapse Time choice.
+
The
Lapse Time
determines the amount of time that will
pass between each still image capture.
+
Set these numbers using the same method as above for the
Lapse Num.
+
The choices are in seconds and range from 1 second to 999 seconds.
+
This, along with the number of images, will determine your overall length of time for your time lapse.
+
For example:
If you choose to take 999 total images and the interval between each is 999 seconds you will have 277 hours
documented. 999 seconds = 16.65 minutes. Multiply that by 999 (images) =16,633.35 minutes. 16,633.35 / 60 (minutes
per hour)= 277 hours or 11.55 days of documentation.
+
Once you have set your number of images and interval, press the Capture/OK button (8) to confirm.
+
Press the Menu button (7) to return to the streaming image.
+
Press the Capture button (8) to start the time lapse.
+
Once all frames have been taken in the Time Lapse mode, the MicroDirect
®
1080p HD microscope will revert back to the
normal preview mode.
NOTE:
The AUTO POWER OFF time needs to be set to a number higher than the set Time Lapse time. See section on AUTO POWER
OFF FEATURE and make sure to do your calculations correctly.
