FOCUS Enhancements FS-2/2E manual DROP/NON Drop, Exit SEL, TC Set

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.

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:
