7)When prompted “DO YOU WANT TO UPGRADE SYSTEM SOFTWARE?” answer YES and YES to the warning messages. WARNING: Upgrade will erase current OS!!

8)After upgrade is complete, power cycle FS-3. The new software should now

be loaded and ready to use.

EXT TC Mode - Whatever the incoming

DV timecode, FS-3 records it. If the Camcorder TC is not running, and FS-3 is recording, the same TC number will be in each frame of DV. Choosing EXT TC mode will clear any stored number.

NOTE: If FS-3 is set to EXT TC when in SYNCRO SLAVE mode, EXT TC will stop once tape in camcorder ends. Use different TC mode when using SYNCRO SLAVE.

(TC Preset cannot be changed while in the EXT TC mode.)

REC RUN Mode - In this mode, FS-3 does the following:

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

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

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