FS Functions
54 FS-4 HD and FS-4Pro HD Portable DTE Recorders
Retro Disk Record Mode
FS-4Pro HD only
The Retro Disk mode records video in a continuous loop to a
user-defined portion of disk space. Pressing Record
seamlessly begins active recording. The Retro Disk session is
appended to the beginning of the new clip. The result is a set of
clips beginning with the cached video and continuing with the
newly recorded video.
• When calculating the amount of hard disk space
needed for a Retro Disk record session, always include
additional space beyond the recording requirements.
The added space depends on the length of the loop.
• Loops less than 60 minutes, need an additional 1 minute
of unused disk space.
• Loops 60 minutes and greater, require an additional 2GB
of unused disk space.
• When looping less than one hour, Retro Disk records
the loop in a series of 1 minute clips.
• Retro Disk is available in Normal, Syncro Slave and
Tapeless control modes.
• When Retro Disk is set, the symbols
L
(Record and L)
appear in the FS-4Pro HD display.
Loop Record
FS-4Pro HD only
Loop Record is similar to Retro Disk.
Loop Record continuously records a series of video clips to
available disk space. When all available disk space is used,
Loop Record begins sequentially replacing the earliest clip
with the most recent.
