Here is the set:
1) Camcorder Sony DSR-370P with FS-3 as external recorder.
2) The settings of DSR-370P and FS-3 is factory defaults.
3) FS-3 in SYNCHRO SLAVE mode doesn’t respond on pressing REC button on camcorder!

Does anyone had the same problem?

Hi Anton,

Do you have a tape in the camcorder? This is necessary to trigger record and record stop in that model. FS-3 needs to be set in Syncro Slave mode.

I have not used a PAL DSR-370, but I have used the NTSC version and the DSR-500P successfully.

Best regards,
