FS-2/2E FUNCTIONS

NOTE: If the FS-2/2E is set to EXT TC
when in SYNCRO SLAVE mode, EXT
TC stops once the tape in the cam-
corder ends. Focus Enhancements
suggests that you use a different TC
mode when using SYNCRO SLAVE.
NOTE: TC Preset cannot be changed
while in the EXT TC mode.
REC RUN Mode - In this mode, the
FS-2/2E does the following:

(1) Uses the last timecode number
recorded + 1 as the timecode
number for the first frame of the
next recording.

(2) Uses the number entered by a
setting in the TC PRESET menu
for the first frame of the next
recording.

The last number used is stored in
the memory, so this mode persists
across recording sessions.

REGEN Mode - After a disk is
mounted (at startup, upon manual
connect) and after the track list has
been constructed, the FS-2/2E looks
at the last track and looks at the
timecode number of the last frame in
that track. The FS-2/2E stores that
number for use as the TC value (+ 1)
for the first frame of the next recording.
If the drive is empty, the FS-2/2E uses
the TC PRESET(+ 1).
FREE RUN Mode - When you enable
FREE RUN mode, the FS-2/2E begins
counting from the value stored. If you
uses the TC PRESET function, when
the number is entered and the TC
PRESET menu is exited, the FS-2/2E
begins counting from that value.

Once a timecode value is set and the FS-2/2E is set
to REC RUN or FREE RUN timecode settings, the
TC preset value becomes the starting point for
timecode.

TC Set

This menu allows you to set Timecode values for
various modes. It also allows the selection of drop
or non-drop frame (NTSC only) settings.

NOTE: The FS-2E, or FS-2 (with the 2.0 upgrade),
has the added ability to delay the recorded
timecode relative to the content.

Once a timecode value is set and the FS-2/2E is set
to REC RUN or FREE RUN timecode settings, the
TC preset value becomes the starting point for
timecode. Use this menu as follows:

Display this menu item by selecting it.
Press SEL to open the sub menu of

screen.

For TC PRESET, scroll from field to
field using the FORWARD and BACK

timecode value for future recordings.

using the FORWARD and BACK
INDEX Buttons.
