15 second delay between images and warning beep

#1

Post by John_Gill »

Hi,

I would like to start a capture sequence of 15 images with a delay of 10 seconds between each image. Then at the end of the sequence to get a "beep" indicating the sequence has ended.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,

The only way to do this at the moment would be to use the built-in scripting language (Python-based) to write some code that captures frames in the sequence that you require and then plays a sound.

You will find some guidance on how to write basic scripts in the scripting section of the forums, and I'm sure that Google searches for something along the lines of 'python windows play sound' will help with the requirement of beeping at the end.

Cheers, Robin

Check out my code at: https://texasstarcave.com/index.php/202 ... -and-mars/

Basically it works using the console:

Code: Select all

from System import Console

Console.Beep()
