Recording trigger Pre-programmable time delay set manually or via salt-water switch
Recording Continuous or duty cycling (i.e. intermittent recording of segments (15, 30, 60 minutes) with programmable delay between segments)
* Recording times depend on the complexity of video data that is recorded. For example, video recorded in mid-water usually has less complex visual data when compared to footage recorded at the seafloor (i.e. uniform blue background versus textured, complex background). This means recording times are generally longer in pelagic foragers when compared to benthic foragers.
