RETRO DISK Record constantly buffers video in a loop to a determined amount of space on the hard-disk drive so that when record is triggered, a retro time period can be added to the beginning of any clip. You can select the RETRO DISK value to close the available disk drive space.
1. Set RETRO TIME by pressing the and buttons. Time is selectable in one minute increments.
2.Hold the button for more than 3 seconds to allow numbers to increase by 10 times.
3.Press EXIT to return to the RECORD.
Press the REC key when in RETRO DISK mode to put the FS-2/2E into a RETRO DISK state (the FS-2/2E's REC button flashes as if in REC-PAUSEstate). The FS-2/2E is actually recording in this state, but until you press the REC key a second time, the video records over itself in a continuous loop. RETRO DISK always keeps at least the selected amount of time in a series of one minute clips. For instance, if you set the RETRO DISK value to 3 minutes, the FS-2 always has 3 minutes (made up of three, one (1) minute clips) of video saved to disk. As the recording goes past the 3 minute point, a fourth clip is created. Once that clip reaches one minute, the oldest of the previous 3 clips is deleted. Another fourth clip is then created.
If you select a RETRO session that is 60 minutes or greater, instead of one minute clips, the FS-2/2E creates 9 minute, 13 second clips (2GB clips on disk). The functionality of RETRO DISK remains the same. The larger file size prevents the FS-2/2E from reaching its 999 track limitation for very long RETRO records.
