The Date and time form the basis of the FS-3
file naming structure for use of clips on a
computer.
On FS-3, files are identified by TRACK and
VOLUME (disk drive) number on the LCD. For
instance, a file on the FS-3 LCD identified as
1-043 is clip number 43 on Volume (disk) 1.
On a computer, files are identified by their base
file name made up of DATE and TIME. For
instance, a clip named 20030615-210943-
01.mov is a clip that began recording at
9:09:43PM on June 15th. 2003.
NOTE: DATE/TIME is used when creating File
name only. FS-3 does not record this
information into the stream. FS-3 records

is sent from the camcorder.
