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-4 and the
camera.
• Verify that the FS-4 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.
