Topband: Testing FST4 on 160m

I'm not understanding the time setting on FST4.  
Does the station calling CQ set the time duration of FST4 and the receiving
station automatically detect that time setting and mimic it, or do both
stations need to start with the correct setting?
I'm not seeing this information in the documentation.

And I'll be happy to be QRV from California. A VK4 has been active, my rig
has decoded him several times (while I was sleeping) off the back of my EU
Beverage with plenty of signal to noise to spare, and I'm hoping to work him
QRP. It's a 7,000 mile path. He worked N6SS a few nights ago.
