Use the m[ ] and ,[ ] keys, jump to a mark or use
the manual locate function to locate to the time where you want

becomes red, indicating that the unit is recording. The time
counter starts at the same time.
When the elapsed time (ABS time) from the beginning of the

frames), “RECORD stopped. ABS time is over 24h” appears in a
pop-up message and recording stops.

holding the REC key will also start recording.

holding the REC key will start recording from that point.
