FS-100 Portable DTE Recorder

Syncro Slave

This mode is for camcorders that do not have external control or
the tapeless control functionality compatible with the FS-100.

Syncro Slave mode requires that a tape be in the camcorder
for operation.

The FS-100 must be set to

Syncro Slave

control mode.

In this mode, the FS-100 watches the record state of the
camcorder and follows its actions.

When Synchro Slave mode is entered from the menu, the Home
screen appears with the Pause indicator displayed in the upper
left-hand corner along with a

Y

following the camcorder’s record state.

indicator
