Record rate
This identies the record rate for the selected prole and can be from 00 PPS to 25PPS (PAL) or
30PPS (NTSC) (40ms PAL or 33ms NTSC). For record rates of less than 1PPS use the milliseconds
option which allows settings of 1000ms to 99999ms. Selecting 00PPS will create a dummy prole
that will not record. Use this dummy prole as a Normal Prole for event recording only.
