button is pressed, then the first keyframe action is
executed.
To execute an action when the [REWIND] button is
pressed, it is necessary to set this action (Rewind Action).
To carry out this setting, in the Device >DDR/VTR
>Timeline menu (5332), press [Rewind Action] to recall
the Rewind Action menu (5332.1). In this setting screen,
use the same setting method as in the screen for setting an
action on the VTR/disk recorder timeline.
Alternatively, you can select the reverse arrangement,
whereby when the [REWIND] button is pressed, this
executes the action set for the first keyframe, and when the
[RUN] button is pressed the first keyframe action is not
executed. In this case, the Rewind Action setting is still
valid.
For details about the setting operation,

Disk Recorder/Extended VTR File
Operations
Material held on a disk recorder/Extended VTR is
managed in units of files. You can recall a file to play it
back.
Recalling a file
Before playback and similar operations on a disk recorder/
Extended VTR, it is first necessary to display a list of the
files.
In the recalled list of files, select the file you want to play
back, and open the file.
File list sharing
You can connect multiple switcher Remote 1 to Remote 4
ports to a single disk recorder/Extended VTR.
You can share the recalled list of files between serial ports
