There are two ways of storing Locate Point memories: manually or "on
the fly."
To store a Locate Point memory "on the fly":
Press [PLAY] to engage playback.
Alternatively, the transport may be engaged in either Rewind,
Review, Fast Forward, Cue, Record or Stop mode (i.e. the transport does
not have to be in Play mode to store Locate Points in the following
manner; it is simply the most practical way to do it).
Press and/or hold the [SET LOCATE] button.
The LOCATE icon will light and a dash (–) will begin flashing to its
right.
Immediately press one of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9]
buttons.
The current tape location will be stored into the Locate Point memory
you selected. If [LOCATE] button is not pressed within 2 seconds after
releasing [SET LOCATE], the flashing dash will disappear and none
of the Locate Point memories will be changed.
To store multiple Locate Points, you may continue holding the
[SET LOCATE] button and press any of the [LOCATE] buttons when
the desired tape positions are reached.
To edit a Locate Point memory:
Press [EDIT VALUE] to enter Edit mode.
The EDIT icon will light.
Press one of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons to select a
Locate Point address.
The LOCATE icon will light, the selected Locate Point's number (0-9)
will appear next to it, and the address of the selected Locate Point will
be displayed in the TIME counter.
Use [ ] and [ ] buttons to fine tune the Locate Point's address.
Alternatively, you may select a specific digit by holding [EDIT
VALUE] and using the [ ] and [ ] buttons.
The selected digit will flash.
While still holding [EDIT VALUE], press any of the [LOCATE
0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons to replace the selected digit with.
The next digit to the right is automatically selected, so you may
continue entering digits.
Once you have stored one or more tape positions into the Locate Point
memories, pressing any of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons
while Edit mode is not selected will initiate a locate to its respective
address. The TIME counter will momentarily display the selected
Locate Point's address and the Locate Point's number (0–9) will appear
in the upper-right corner of the display; the transport will either fast
forward or rewind to the selected Locate Point's address.
