* Support for NTFS (3.1) and FAT32 file system. The Monarch LCS will support writing to USB3 devices at USB2 speeds. Also note, there is a very high variability in the performance capabilities of \u201cthumb\u201d drives (even USB3 versions). Many are optimized for \u201cread\u201d operations while the Monarch LCS requires sustained \u201cwrite\u201d capabilities. For best results, Matrox recommends using powered USB drives. If small portable media is required, SD cards may be more suitable.** Supports SD and SDHC cards. Only NTFS formatted SDXC cards are supported. (Class 10 highly recommended).*** Support for writing to shared folders in computers found on a network using Windows Share protocols (suitable for Windows system) as well as NFS protocols (suitable for Mac and Linux systems).<\/td><\/tr>
Recording Lengths<\/td>Maximum file length of 300 minutes\u2014irrespective of storage type used. File splitting feature allows a user to record continuously for long periods by defining file segment sizes. The Monarch appliance will create these sequential file segments over the course of the recording operation without losing a single frame of video. File segment can have a length of 1 to 300 minutes.<\/td><\/tr>
