Capture properties

The Capture panel contains these component.

Capture Info section

PropertyDescription
Capture Folder

Enter or browse to the location of the folder in which to store captured data.

Note: by default, at least two files are saved for each capture: the raw camera data (.x2d) and the motion capture file (.mcp)
Default: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vicon\Evoke1.x\Captures

Capture Name

Enter a suitable name that will enable you to identify the capture. This forms the first part (root) of the capture name. If Auto-increment Name is selected (see below), Evoke automatically adds a numerical suffix to the root capture name for each subsequent capture, for example, Capture001, Capture002, Capture003, etc.
Note: If the Capture Name matches any file name within the Capture Folder, Evoke will not allow you to select Start Capture.
Default: Capture

Auto-increment Name

If selected, appends a number at the end of the root capture name for each capture in a sequence consisting of multiple captures.
Default: Selected

Auto Capture section

You can configure Vicon Evoke to automatically capture data using these controls:

PropertyDescription
Start on Timecode

Select this check box and specify the timecode at which you want the capture to automatically start, using the format: hh:mm:ss:ff

Where: hh = hours (0-23), mm = minutes (0-59), ss = seconds (0-59), ff = frames (0-24 for PAL/SECAM, 0-29 for NTSC)

For NTSC, the separator character changes between a colon ( : ) for non-drop frames and a semicolon ( ; ) for drop frames.

For further details on the use of timecode functionality in Vicon systems, see the documentation for your Vicon camera or the Vicon Systems Setup Guide.

Default: Cleared

Stop on Timecode

Select this check box and specify the timecode at which you want the capture to automatically stop, using the format: hh:mm:ss:ff

Where: hh = hours (0-23), mm = minutes (0-59), ss = seconds (0-59), ff = frames (0-24 for PAL/SECAM, 0-29 for NTSC)

For NTSC, the separator character changes between a colon ( : ) for non-drop frames and a semicolon ( ; ) for drop frames.
