BASIC EDITING

EDIT V

ALUE BUTTON

The [EDIT VALUE] button is used to turn Edit mode on and off. When

turned on, the EDIT icon will light indicating you are now in Edit mode.

At this point, you can press any one of the [LOCATE 0] - [LOCATE 9],

[TAPE OFFSET] or [TRACK DELAY] Function buttons to view and/or

edit their respective parameter settings in the display. The icons just

below the EDIT icon in the display will indicate which feature is

currently selected for editing (when in Edit mode), and which features

are on or off (when not in Edit mode). When Edit mode is selected, the

TIME counter provides a display of the selected parameter’s current

setting.

The first time [EDIT VALUE] is pressed, Locate 0 will be selected.

While the EDIT icon is still on, you can press another Function button to

access its parameter(s). Press [EDIT VALUE] again to exit Edit mode;

the EDIT icon will turn off. Pressing a Function button now will toggle

that function on or off. The next time Edit mode is turned on, the display

will return to the last function you were editing before exiting Edit

mode.

▲ AND ▼ BUTTONS

Once a function is selected, the ▲ and ▼ buttons are used to increment or

decrement its setting by single values. By holding either button, the

increment or decrement value increases its speed. By simultaneously

pressing both buttons, the selected parameter is reset to 0.

ENTERING NUMERIC VALUES

If [EDIT VALUE] is held while in Edit mode, you may use the

[LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons as a 10-digit keypad (from 0 to 9)

to enter a specific numerical value for the currently selected parameter

in the display. Numbers are entered from left to right.

Examples: If [LOCATE 1] is pressed using this method to edit Track

Delay time (displayed as XXX.X ms), the display would show .1 ms. If

a [LOCATE 5] is now entered, the display shows 1.5 ms. If the [EDIT

VALUE] button is released at this time, the display shows 001.5 ms

and that would be the new Track Delay value. Likewise, if this

method is used to edit a Locate Point (X:XX:XX.XX) and the sequence of

numbers were entered as follows: [LOCATE 1] – [LOCATE 2] –

[LOCATE 3] , the display would successively show . 1, .12, 1.23. If

the [EDIT VALUE] button is then released, the display would show

0:00:01.23 and that would be the Locate Point’s value.
