> Locator Menu
To enter the Locator Menu, press [ESC] in STOP mode.
The Locator allows the user to store four tape locations (Time Code or Abs Time
addresses) and to access them automatically and rapidly later on.
The LCD displays indicates the still available Locator memory registers, maximal 4 ( 4Mk ).
In PLAY or REC mode a push on the PLAY key stores the current tape location's address
in the next available memory register. To recall a stored location, enter the Locator menu
(press [ESC] in STOP mode) and select the desired register with the joystick:
A vertical pressure on the joystick starts instantly the search of the selected location on
tape.
Another, faster way to access Locator stored locations is to assign one or several memory
registers to the function keys. A push on the corresponding key searches then the stored
location.

Mode after Loc. sub-menu on page 37)
Please note that the four Locator memory registers are cleared as soon as the cassette is
ejected.
The two sub-menus Loc to Abstime and Loc to TCtime allow to manually enter an
address. A vertical pressure on the joystick starts the search of the desired location on
tape. In STOP mode, pressing the ESC key exits the Locator menu. In PLAY or REC
mode, pressing this key clears the memory registers and makes them available for new
locations.
