FS-T2001 Media Recorder 39

 TC BREAK control mode triggers the FS-T2001 from the camera

controls (using timecode breaks). FS-T2001 will start recording

record when the timecode is incrementing, and stop when it is

stalled.

The camera must support REC RUN or REGEN timecode and be

set to that mode. In addition, it may also require media to be

inserted and recorded to on the camera: consult the camera’s user

guide for further information. NOTE: When this mode is being

used, before connecting FS-T2001 to the camera, make sure the

camera is set to REC-RUN mode and not recording.

While in EXTERNAL or TC BREAK mode, the

home screen will show the following logo:

REC MODE

triggered (in either normal or external control mode), the cached

content is added to the beginning of the recording.
