[29] LOC 1
Pressing this key will locate the tape to the first mem-
ory location (set with this key in shifted mode). If the
tape is playing when this key is pressed, the tape will
resume playing when the location is reached, other-
wise it will stop.
When the key is pressed, the value stored in the first
location memory will flash on the right side of the
display (frames, program numbers and margin will
disappear while the tape is locating, and be restored
once location is complete).
If a pre-roll time has been set in the menu, pressing
this key will locate to the memory location minus the
pre-roll time.
[30] LOC 2
This key functions in exactly the same way as
LOC 1
[29]
above, except that the second location memory
is used rather than the first.
[31] SINGLE PLAY
The single play mode, when active, will play only
one program , i.e. when the next START ID is
encountered, playback will stop. When single play
mode is active, the display will show

[32] SHIFT
This key is a latching key. When active, the indicator
beside and above the key lights, and the command
keys take on their shifted functions, as indicated by
the blue captions above them.
See 4, "Advanced functions" for details of these
shifted functions.
