	The table below lists DGy 201 recorder commands, associated with the
	record and play functions, including event marks.
Table 6-10.DGy 201 Play and Record Commands
Command	Arguments	Description
RECord	[-P] [clipname]	This command switches the DGy to Recording
		mode.
		If an argument is given, that argument is used as
		the name of the clip. If no argument is given, the
		clip name reflects the record start time, in the form
		yyyymmddhhmmss.
		The optional -P argument places the recording into
		a RECORD PAUSE mode. In this mode the
		recorder will enter the record mode, but will not
		start recording until a subsequent RECORD
		command is received. This provides the ability to
		set up the recorder for an “instant” start.
		Note: To switch from Record to any other recorder
		function, you must first issue the Stop command.
SYNChronizedRECord	<clipname> <starttime>	The SYNChronizedREC command is used to
		schedule recording of a clip at a specified time. A
		clipname must be provided, and the start time must
		be specified using the time format
		yyyymmddhhmmss (24 hour time).
		Example
		Start recording a clip named Rec227 at 3:05pm,
		June 9th 2005.
		syncrec Rec227 20050609150500
		The SYNChronizedREC command is typically
		used to synchronize multiple DGy recorders so that
		they will perform as a multi-channel recorder.
		Before using the DGy in this mode it is
		recommended that the real time clocks of each
		recorder are synchronized using either an IRIG or
		NTS time reference (synchronizing is then
		automatic). The SYNChronizedREC command
		should then be issued to each machine using the
		same time argument.
