Time Lapse
You can select an interval of up to twenty-four
hours. The interval is the period of time between the
FS-2/2E capture of a single frame of video (a value
of 00:00:00:00 means no frames will be recorded).
Set REC INTERVAL by pressing the
TIME and buttons. Select the
time in frames (up to 30 for NTSC or
25 for PAL), then seconds (up to 59),
then minutes up to 59, then hours up
to 23.
Use | and | keys to scroll
between values.

Select these options to control the FS-2/2E from the
front panel buttons only. You can also control the
FS-2/2E with the optional wired remote control unit
(ACSS-0019-01). This can be purchased at the
Focus Enhancements online store: https://
www.focusinfo.com/sales/store/.
This sub-menu contains the following selections:
Normal Mode - This is the default
setting. In this mode, recordings are
captured to a single base file until
STOP is triggered, or the nine minute
file size limit is reached.
Index at TC - In this mode, recordings
are continuous until a break in the
incoming timecode stream is detected.
At that time, a new file is automatically
created. No frames are lost during the
transition to a new clip.
Index at Scene - In this mode,
recordings are continuous until a
scene break is detected in the
incoming video stream. At that time, a
new file is automatically created within
one second of the scene change. No
frames are lost during the transition to
a new clip.
NOTE: The Index at Scene option watches the DV
stream for an index marker that is recorded to tape
when a new scene, or record session starts. It
depends upon the camcorder when this index is
recorded to tape. Some camcorders record the
index at every scene, or when the camera is placed
in and out of record pause. Other cameras, only
record the index marker at the beginning of every
record session; in other words, the camera needs to
be placed into STOP or powered-off between
indices. Refer to your camcorder's manual for more
information.
Remote
Select this function to control the FS-2/2E by an
external device through the RS-422 port. The
FS-2/2E takes on the characteristics of a VTR as
setup in the RS422 MENU screen in the SETUP
MENU. You cannot use the FS-2/2E front panel
controls in this mode.
