playback or in stop mode and once selected, the
clip will be marked for placement into that
particular folder. To add all SCENE MARKED

Backward Search Key

Pressing the backward search button multiple
times will result in increases in the search speed
during playback. This mode is bidirex in
forward X times normal search speed. A press
of the Back Search button will result in FF
speed being slowed down by one step. For
instance, if user is in 10X FF speed and presses
the Back Search button once, they will now be
in 2X FF mode. This applies vice versa for
backward search speeds. Speed resolution is as
follows: (NTSC, PAL will have slightly
different multiples for < 1X):

REVERSE : -30X, -10X, -2X, -1X (reverse
play), -1/2X(-15fps), Still.

FORWARD: Still, +1/2X (+15fps), +1X (play),
+2X, +10X, +30X

Forward Search Key

Pressing the forward search key multiple times
will result in increases in the search speed
during playback. This key has the same
characteristics and bidirex function as the
backward search key listed above.

Standard forward search and reverse search also
have a “higher resolution” mode where
more speeds are available. By pressing and
holding the SHIFT key plus the forward or
backward search key, the user has access to a

larger number of playback speed choices. This
mode is the same as Standard Forward Search
in that it is also bidirex.

REVERSE: -30X, -25X, -18X, -15X, -12X, -
10X, -8X, -5X, -4X, -3X, -2X, -1X, -15fps, -
10fps, -6fps, -5fps, -3fps, -2fps, -1fps, Still

FORWARD: Still, +1fps, +2fps, +3fps, +5fps,
+6fps, +10fps, +15fps, +1X, +2X, +3X, +4X,
+5X, +8X, +10X, +12X, +15X, +18X, +25X,
+30X.

NOTE: When using the optional FS-3 remote
control units, holding down the particular button
will not repeat the function as it does on the FS-
3 control panel. For repeat sequences, the button
must be pressed multiple times.

Play Key

Starts playback of the selected clip. By pressing
and holding the SHIFT key plus the play
button, FS-3 will immediately go into reverse
play mode.

Backward Index Key

Returns to the beginning of the current clip if in
playback mode. Two presses in sequence will
return to the previous clip during playback. In
Stop mode a press will return to the beginning of
the previous clip.

Forward Index Key

Skips forward to the next sequential clip for
playback.

The forward index and backward index buttons
also have a SHIFT mode where users can move
one frame forward or one frame backward.
