T-Bar Operation
The T-Bar may be set via "T-Bar Range" to Normal, ±5%, ±10%, or
bidirectional operation.
Note: Due to limitations of the P2 protocol, these speeds may not be exact.
Normal
There are three main aspects of the "Normal" speed operation of the T-
Bar, as follows:
Full Range Operation
Press the ENABLE button. As soon as the T-Bar is moved, a speed
command (depending on message choice made in the Menu) will be
sent. The range of operation is from Still (all the way toward the
operator) to 10x normal play speed.
A subsequent press of the ENABLE button will turn the T-Bar off.
Depending on selection within the Menu, the pressing of any
"transport" button (REW, R-PLAY, STOP, PLAY, FFWD) may be made
to turn the T-Bar off.
Scaled Range Operation
Press the T1 button. The T-Bar will be enabled. The Minimum speed
of the T Bar will now be the value set in the Menu Item T-Bar Speed
Min. The Maximum speed will now be the value set in the Menu Item
T-Bar Speed Max.
Preset Operation
It might be desired to be able to always start T Bar operation at a
know speed different from the Max or Min value. When the PRESET
button is pushed, a speed value equal to the speed set in the Menu
Item "T-Bar Speed Preset" will be immediately sent. That speed will
be shown on the second line of the display. Unless the T-Bar
happens to be sitting at the Preset speed, the PRESET LED will blink
indicating that the T Bar needs to be moved to the "null" point (the
point where the T Bar position is the same as the Preset).
On the far right of the display, an up or down arrow will show which
direction the T Bar needs to be moved. When the T-Bar is moved
past the Preset point, the LED will turn off, and the arrow will
disappear. The T Bar is now "Live".
