FS­100 Functions
40 FS­100 Portable DTE Recorder
PRE­REC Disk Record Mode
The PRE­REC Disk mode records video in a continuous loop to a
user­defined portion of disk space. Pressing Record seamlessly
begins active recording. The PRE­REC Disk session is appended to
the beginning of the new clip. The result is a set of clips beginning
with the cached video and continuing with the newly recorded video.
• When calculating the amount of hard disk space needed for a
PRE­REC Disk record session, always include additional
space beyond the recording requirements. The added space
depends on the length of the loop.
• Loops less than 60 minutes in need an additional 1 minute of
unused disk space.
• Loops 60 minutes and greater require an additional 2GB of
unused disk space.
• When looping less than one hour PRE­REC Disk records the
loop in a series of 1 minute clips.
• Otherwise, the FS­100 creates:
• DVCPRO / DV: 9 minute, 13 second clips (2GB clips on disk),
• DVCPRO 50: 4 minute, 36 second clips (2GB clips on disk),
• DVCPRO HD: 2 minute, 18 second clips (2GB on disk),
• PRE­REC Disk is available in Local , Syncro Slave , and
Tapeless control modes.
• When PRE­REC Disk is set, the symbols P (Record and P)
appear in the FS­100 display.
