1.4 Record Time Remaining Update

It is now possible to monitor the record time remaining on a disk drive while in record mode. Time is listed in hours, minutes, seconds and frames. To do this, put FireStore into record mode,

and simply press the (MODE)

button. The display will now read:

1.5 Timecode Update

There are now four different ways to display timecode on FireStore: Standard Timecode (TC), Remaining Timecode (REM), Source Timecode (DV) and Absolute Timecode (ABS).

In order to switch between the different timecode displays, press FireStore’s (MODE)

button. It is possible to switch between these modes during record or

playback. Each is described below.

Standard Timecode (TC)

FireStore will count from zero through the duration of each individual clip in hours, minutes, seconds and frames (00:00:00:00) while recording. During playback, FireStore will count up the duration of each clip.

Remaining Timecode (REM)

FireStore will display the remaining time on a disk in hours, minutes, seconds and frames while in record mode. In playback mode, FireStore will count down the remaining time of the particular clip being played.

Source Timecode (DV)

FireStore will display the incoming source timecode from the source DV device when in record mode. In playback mode, FireStore will display the embedded timecode from the DV stream.

Absolute Timecode (ABS)

FireStore will display the absolute or total sum of the timecode for a particular recording session. For instance, if the first clip began with a timecode of 00:00:00:00 and ended with a timecode of 00:00:14:21, the first frame of the next clip will start at 00:00:14:22. If playing back a disk in play all mode, FireStore will play the sum of all of the clips as an absolute counter.
