With this tool you define time series. At the end the resulting time series image (CZI) is saved on hard drive or into the archive (as all other acquisition workbenches do). For exporting MPEG4 files, use the Movie Export tool, see Output Documents > Export Tools > Movie Export Tool tool, see Movie Export Tool.
To acquire time series you need to license the Time Series module.
