# FDS Devices

FDS uses a TAG Heuer compatible timing protocol, therefore this implementation works for both FDS and Tag Heuer devices alike.

### Configuration <a href="#configuration" id="configuration"></a>

Channels range from 1 to 99, usually being 1 the start and 2 at the finish. The meaning of each setting is described [here](https://dbnetsoft.github.io/IDCamProDocumentation/configuration/timingdevices/).

Manual button impulses are marked with an M in front of the channel number, e.g. M1 for a button push on the first channel.&#x20;

| Key                | Values   | Default |
| ------------------ | -------- | ------- |
| Start Channels     | `1`-`99` | `1`     |
| Recording Channels | `1`-`99` | `2`     |
| Bib Channels       | `1`-`99` | `2`     |
