Re: Spikes when recording

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

The computer is on a UPS.

The image is just cutout from a whole hour.

I'm recording 24 x 1 hour per day. 23 hours are fine without spikes,
but at always the same time at 2:30 such spikes occur.

Kind Regards,
Peter
