(2) Record/Play Status Indicator
In this space, the FS-2/2E displays a character that
indicates what record or playback mode it is in. The
characters displayed and their respective modes
are listed in “FS-2/2E LCD Display Modes” on
page 4-3 of this user guide.
(3) Current System Status
The current system status of the FS-2/2E is
displayed in the top left corner of the LCD display.
For instance, it displays whether the FS-2/2E is in
record, play, stop, pause, fast search or slow
motion modes.
(4) Volume Number
The volume or disk number of the current clip
recording or playback session is displayed in the
top right corner of the LCD display. For example, a
display value of “2-014” identifies a track as being
on volume 2.
(5) Track or Clip Number
The track number is displayed in the top right corner
of the LCD Display. This is the current clip or track
number being recorded or played back. For
example, a display value of “2-014” identifies a track
as being clip 14 on volume 2.
(6) Timecode/User Bit Display Mode
This identifies the display mode for timecode or
user bit values. Selections are:
COUNTER - Counts frames during
record or playback of the current clip
only.
REMAINING - Counts down the
number of frames available (time) on a
particular disk during a record session.
In a playback session, this display
shows the remaining time on the
current clip.
DV NTSC or PAL - Displays the
external timecode value being
generated by a camcorder or other
device during a record session.
Timecode mode has to be set to EXT
TC for this function to operate (refer to
“TC Mode” on page 2-22 of this user
guide). In playback mode, this displays
the embedded DV timecode value in a
particular track.
USER BIT - Displays the set user bit
value in a particular clip. A user bit
value must be added for this to display
(refer to “TC Set” on page 2-23 of this
user guide).
ABSOLUTE - Displays an absolute
timecode value for the particular
session (sum of all COUNTER
timecodes on connected volumes).
This is primarily used when you set the
FS-2/2E to AV/C mode and are
controlling it with an external FireWire
device, such as a computer.
