Introduction
Keypad Delegation
Each E-MEM and Master E-MEM has a keypad that can recall effects with
a single numeric button press (see
Keypad Numeric Entry Buttons on
page 127 and Master E-MEM Keypad on page 133 ). These keypads are also
used to enter numeric values. Pressing a numeric prefix button delegates
the keypad to numeric entry for that function.
The numeric prefix buttons and controlled numeric functions are listed in
Table 3 .
Time Value Entry
Time values are input on the Zodiak Main Control Panel E-MEM and
Master E-MEM subpanels in seconds, frames, odd field format, using the
Undo/•
button the separator (indicated below as “

)
and the
Enter
button to
complete the entry:

The default time entry is in frames. For example, a time of 15 frames (one
half second on 60 hz systems) can be input simply by pressing:
15
,
Enter
Entries in seconds can be entered by adding one separator. For example, a
time of 1 second is input by pressing:
1

Enter
An odd field is input by pressing
1
as the last entry. For example, a time of
one second 15 frames and one field is input by pressing:
1
,

15
,
•
,
1
,
Enter
After an odd field has been entered, it is represented with an “f” in the
E-MEM readout. For example, the completed time above appears as
1:15f . It is possible to enter values other than 1 as an odd field. The system
will calculate and display the correct number frames and a single odd field.
