Trying to do timelapse with HVX-200 & FS-100 (4.0)

I've read the FS-100, HVX, and BG's HVX manual and those didn't help me. I also read all the posts on this forum and still can't figure this out. I read that I can record from the FS-100 with the HVX-200 used as a live feed -can't get that, can't record from the camera to the FS. I've tried a ton of settings but no luck. Here are my settings or if you could provide the pertinent settings that would be greatly appreciated.

On My FS-100

HDD MODE - DVCProHD REC
RECORD - Normal (I've set this to Time Lapse Most of the time but nothing still worked. Have 00:00:15:00 as the setting there.)
CONTROL - Tapeless
DV FORMATS - Mostly used Quicktime but also QT PN.

HVX-200 Settings are:

1. Scene File - Set as Video Cam. Saw some post that said it should be in Film Cam, tried that too but didn't work.
5. Recording Setup - 720P/24P, 720P/30P
What should I have the REC FUNCTION set to? Interval,Normal,
9. Other Functions - 1349 Control - BOTH

I think these are the settings I need to be dealing with to get this but can't put the right combination together.
 
I'll answer my own question for those who don't know either.

Should have had these settings on the FS-100.

HDD MODE - DVCProHD REC
RECORD - Timelapse
CONTROL - Local
DV FORMATS - It always switched it to QT from QT PN but it didn't make any difference to me.

I'm sure I had this setting before but after reviewing the process of using the FS-100 to record with instead of the HVX- you need to hit the record button twice on the FS-100.

Can't believe the "experts" on this forum couldn't have answered this and a dummy like me did.
