FS-100 Functions
FS-100 Portable DTE Recorder
61
TIME CODE EXT, REC RUN, FREE RUN, REGEN
The following are timecode (TC) functions.
•
TC EXT Group Default
Records the incoming source timecode. If the timecode is not
running, the FS-100 records the same timecode number in
each recorded frame. Choose
TC EXT mode to clear any stored
number.
•
TC REC RUN
In this mode, after a power cycle, the FS-100 starts its TC
record count using the
TC SET value. Later recordings add to
the last value recorded. A power cycle resets the TC record
value to the
TC SET value.
•
TC FREE RUN
This function causes the FS-100 to begin counting from the
value stored by
TC SET.
A number entered through
TC SET is not stored and
available to the FS-100 until exiting
TC SET. Only then does
the FS-100 begin counting using that number.
•
TC REGEN
When the FS-100 powers up in
TC REGEN mode, it:
Reads the timecode of the last track recorded.
Adds 1 to the number.
Stores the new timecode as the number that will be
assigned to the first frame of the next recording session.
If the drive is empty, i.e. no existing recordings with, the
FS-100 uses the
TC SET value.
TC SET and UB SET Can Be Set at the Same Time
Both parameters, TC SET and UB SET, may be set and are not mutually
exclusive as in some groups, i.e. LCDLIGHT.
TC EXT Recommended for Pull-down Applications
If the recording signal contains pull-down information in 720/60p format,
the frame flag information contained is preserved in TC EXT mode and
is required for the editing process.
