Connect the output of the microphone system to one of the SPEECH IN
connectors. (The RCA jack provides for unbalanced input; the 3-pin
connector provides for balanced input. Use only one input at a time.)
Crestron recommends using the FreeSpeech wireless mic system. To do
so, simply connect an RCA cable from the white LINE OUT connector on
the rear of the FreeSpeech receiver to the white unbalanced input
connector on the Capture recorder.

Capture HD® High-Definition Capture Recorder
Operation Overview
8
The Capture recorder has two options for storage: local storage and storage on a remote server.
● Local Storage
For local storage, the device records a presentation either on the provided SDHC card or on
a USB storage device inserted in the front or rear USB port. (Either storage device must be
formatted for FAT32.) Before starting, the front panel controls are used to specify where the
file is to be saved (the default is the SDHC card).
When the presentation is about to begin, the presenter simply presses the REC button;
when finished, presses STOP; and the video file (example: CAPTURE-HD61ecf4_2011-1017_09_43_29.ts) is saved in the specified location. After the front panel indicates that the
recording is done, the media can be removed, if desired, and made available for other
presentations.
● Storing on Remote Server
quickstart guide
The presentation can also be saved to local media, and then uploaded via FTP to a remote
server. Distribution is then controlled by FTP settings from the SIMPL Windows symbol, the
optional CAPTURE-TPMC-4SM touch screen, or Fusion RV.
When the Capture recorder is used in conjunction with Fusion RV, the presentation is
automatically transferred via FTP to a “Watch” directory that Fusion RV monitors. When
Fusion RV detects the new file, it takes the file and processes it for distribution.
