Location and Function of Parts
AXIS LOC (location) button: When this
button is lit, the axis of rotation of the
image is moved, in the x- and y-
directions by the trackball, and in the
z-direction by the Z-ring.
ROT (rotation) button: The trackball
rotates the image about the x- and y-
axes, and the Z-ring about the z-axis.
1)
Pressing this button while holding
down the SHIFT button in the
keyframe operation section changes
the three-dimensional parameter
display section of the menu screen to
the TRGT SPIN display or SRCE
SPIN display according to the setting
of the function allocation section.
This enables you to use the spin
function.
X, Y, Z buttons: Use these buttons to
restrict the axes affected by movement
of the trackball and Z-ring.
Additionally, when one of these
buttons is lit, the numeric keypad can
be used to input coordinate data for
that axis.
CTR (center) button: Pressing this
button changes the current data values
for the trackball or Z-ring positions to
closest system-specified values (i.e.
provides a detent function).
Immediately pressing this button once
more reverts to the system default
values.
VELO (velocity) HOLD button: If you
hold down this button, then move the
trackball or Z-ring, the movement
continue when you release the
trackball or Z-ring as long as you hold
down the button.

1) Using the spin function (page 3-28) in place of the
ROT button enables you to specify the number of
rotations when creating an effect.
2) The rate of movement can be varied in the
TRACK BALL menu (page 10-10).
