from the bottom to begins slow motion playback. The default scan speeds are 6 times normal speed. To change
the scan speed, press SETUP, the scan key to change, turn the knob until the desired speed is shown, then press
ENTER.
CLIP SCAN
“Clip Scan” is entered by tapping both scan keys (
&
) together. While in clip scan mode, playback
continually cues to the point in the last cued clip relative to the TBar position. This allows clips of any length to be
scanned quickly from heads (bottom = IN point) to tails (top = OUT point). Any other transport key (STOP, PLAY,
SHTL, etc.) exits the clip scan mode. Also, turning the knob exits the clip scan mode and enters jog (still).
SHUTTLE
To shuttle quickly through material, press the SHTL key and use the TBar (or knob if no TBar). Near the middle is
still, up from middle shuttles forward, down from middle shuttles in reverse. Speed response uses a logarithmic
scale providing a natural feel for both fast and slow speeds. While in the still range, the knob can be used to jog
without leaving the shuttle mode. The SHTL key sets shuttle speed to still and the SLOW key LEDs indicate the
direction the lever must be moved to gain control. A second use of the SHTL key (SHTL when already in shuttle
still) sets shuttle speed to the current position of the TBar. As in other modes, the MARK key can be used to mark
cue points while in shuttle.
ERASING RECORDED MATERIAL
Press SETUP, REC and use the UP and DOWN arrows to select DELETE CLIPS to delete entire recordings
(material contained in record cue points). ERASE ALL VIDEO deletes all recorded material, cue points, and
playlists. The latter selection should be used occasionally to avoid possible disk fragmentation. Deleted material
cannot be recovered! See RECORD SETTINGS for more information on deleting.
PLAYLISTS
Sport has memory for up to ten playlists each containing up to 100 steps which can be assigned cue points or stills.
When played, as the OUT point of each step’s cue point is reached, a seamless cut is made to the cue point of the
following step while motion continues. Cue points must have a duration of at least 1 second for playlists to operate
properly. While playlist mode is enabled (PLAYLIST LED lit), the MENU display shows the current playlist number,
the current step and cue point, and the next step and cue point. The STATUS display shows the actual time,
adjusted for slo-mo speed, that it will take for the playlist to finish playing to the next still (STL) or end. If looping is
enabled while playing a playlist, the entire playlist is looped.
PLAYLIST SETUP
To create a playlist, press SETUP, the number of the playlist (0-4), then PLAYLIST. If you skip the number key,
the last
setup
playlist is used. The MENU display shows the playlist number and a playlist step with its cue
point. To add a cue point to the list, enter its number on the keypad and press ENTER. The next step is then
shown. Press ENTER without numbers to add the
current
cue point to the list. The RIGHT and LEFT arrow
keys change the displayed step. While holding the zero (0) key, the RIGHT and LEFT arrow keys change the
step by 10. If the cue point is END, every new point you enter is added to the end of the list. If not at END, an
entry is inserted at the current step and other steps are rippled up to make room. Press the DOWN arrow to
program a still (STL) at the current step. To delete the current step and ripple all higher steps down, press the
UP arrow key. (Reminders of the UP and DOWN arrow key functions are shown with icons on the display).
QUICK PLAYLIST CREATION
A shortcut method allows cue points to be added quickly to the end of playlists: Hold the ENTER key and press
the PLAYLIST button to add the
current
cue point (the one on the MENU display) to the end of the current
setup
playlist (the one last selected by pressing SETUP, a keypad number 0-4, then PLAYLIST). To add the
current
cue point to
any
playlist, hold the keypad number of the desired playlist (0-4) and press PLAYLIST. This allows
separate playlists to be created for different purposes, such as special playlists for key athletes or types of
plays.
PLAYLIST PLAYBACK
To prepare a playlist for playback, press the number of the playlist (0-4), then PLAYLIST. If the number is
omitted, the last playback playlist is selected. The PLAYLIST LED lights. When lit, turn the playlist mode off by
again pressing PLAYLIST. Press CUE to cue playback to the first step (the step 00 cue point). Press PLAY or
a slo-mo key to begin playlist playback. When a still (STL) step is reached, the OUT point of the preceding step
is frozen until PLAY or a slo-mo key is pressed, which freezes on the first frame of the next step. Press PLAY
or a slo-mo key again to continue playing. Note that the
playback
playlist can be different than the
setup
