Tape does not need to be loaded if the camera supports external
operation, refer to, CONTROL on page 95.
Troubleshooting: Counter Not Incrementing
If the Counter does not increment while recording the camera, it is
an indication that there is no active connection between the FS-5
and the camera.
• Verify that the FS-5 1394 DV I/O and the camera connections
are secure. It may be necessary to unplug and then reconnect
them.
When a good connection is made, the Counter will increment
and recording will start.
• Verify that FS-5 and camera settings are correct.
Verify Record Mode Matches Source Video Content and Format
If in DV Recorder mode, HD content will not record properly. A
NTSC or PAL DV source records only on a matching NTSC or PAL
unit.
