Record & Replay

The "Voyage Data Recorder" Module needs to be configured to access this feature.

The Record and Replay Options allows you to enable or disable the data that is recorded and adjust compression options (note that Own Ship, Targets and Events are always recorded).

• Enable Radar Recording: Enable or Disable the Radar recording. User can set the radar recording frequency, Quality and Resolution:

• • Radar Recording Frequency: Adjust how often the radar picture gets recorded. You can decrease the recording frequency to save space. The Radar picture gets compressed and takes in average 1MB/minute at maximum recording speed (every antenna turn). Note that this number can increase or decrease according to how much radar echoes are present on the radar screen.

  • Radar Quality: Adjust the number of "level" used to store radar echo information. For example, if you set the quality to 4 bits, the echo level will be converted from 128 possible levels to 16 levels. Since the Radar Recording is only use for visualization (not for target processing), you can safely reduce the quality.

  • Radar Resolution: Adjust the resolution of the radar picture from 1024*1024 down to 256*256. Only reduce the Radar resolution when you need to save lots of space. Decreasing the resolution will noticeably decrease the radar echo "readability".

• Archive/Delete Data Older Than: Set the number of day you want TimeZero to keep recorded data on the local hard-drive. This defines how much day you can replay from the recording computer (live).

• Export Recorded Data...: Select this option when you want to export a chunk of data by date and duration. Note that this option only allows you to extract data that has not been yet archived.
