julian, you may already have this info from your own V35 brochure, but  my 
V35 brochure may be different, so here's what it says about the  Focometer 
2...
 
 
On the Automatic exposure meter Focometer 2
 
"The focometer 2 is a microprocessor-controlled automatic exposure meter  
and 
control system for color and black-and-white processing. All controls and  
displays are illuminated for easy identification in the darkroom. Its 
ergonomic  
layout and ease of operation are ideally matched to laboratory requirements. 
The  time and metering range are designed for professional metering 
techniques. Three  of ten index memories are equipped to compensate 
different levels of 
reciprocity  failure. All memory returns are battery-buffered to provide 
approximately six  months' backup for all stored programs."  {There is no 
mention 
here of  Quartz}...
