2.5.4.2 Retro Disk

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-PAUSE state). 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.
