Program; Creating A New Program - Fostex VF160EX Operation Manual

With the VF160EX, the music is managed according to programs numbered 01-99 (99 programs). These programs
are independent of each other and can be recorded or played separately. This section describes the instructions of
how to operate the program.

Creating a New Program

One program (P01) is automatically created on the
VF160EX when formatting the hard disk. Follow the
instructions below to create a New Program.
Note that the VF160EX must be in the STOP mode.
<Precaution>
The contents as the program currently started is copied
as the default setting of a newly created program.
To keep the same default settings as previously created
programs, first start up the previous program and then
create a new program.
1. Press the [PGM SEL] key in the STOP state.
The current program number and "Select PGM!" appears,
then "Sure?" flashes on the LCD.
2. Turn the [JOG] dial clockwise to find "New PGM?", then
press the [ENTER/YES] key.
A new program is created, then automatically proceeds to
the "Title Edit" menu of the SETUP mode. This allows the
user to input (edit) the title name of the newly created

program.

Press the [EXIT/NO] key twice to create a program with a
working title, without editing the title.
When the [EXIT/NO] key is pressed, the system returns to
the Normal Display. To edit the working title, proceed as
follows.

3. Press the [ENTER/YES] key again.
The "Tentative Title" (#0002, etc.) that was automatically
assigned when creating a new program appears on the
LCD. The left end of the title is highlighted and flashes.
This means that the tentative (working) title of the newly
created program can be edited. Edit the title in the
following manner.
Note that the "Title Edit" function described later can also
edit or reedit the title of a new program already assigned
a title or one that was edited.
<How to add a title!>
• Turn the [JOG] dial at the cursor (flashing point).
The following alphanumerics can be selected.
• Shift through the cursor (flashing point) by pressing
the [HOLD/>] key, [REWIND] key or [F FWD] key.
* Rotate the [JOG] dial while holding down the [SHIFT]
key and the recorder will jump to the letters/symbols
listed below (small square position).
4. Press the [ENTER/YES] key after assigning a title.
The program is set with the title assigned.
5. Press the [EXIT/NO] key (or [STOP] key).
The user escapes from the SETUP mode and the Normal
Display of the newly created program appears on the LCD.
<Notes>
• Note that when creating a new program, the next
sequential number of the program currently set on
the disk is set. If there is only one program, then
program number 2 (P02) is created. If there are five
programs, then program number P06 is assigned.
• The program name started when creating a new
program is directly copied for the scene name (S01:
#0002, etc.) appearing below the program number.
• Available disk space is slightly reduced by creating
a new program. The user cannot create a new
program when there is not enough disk space
available to save that program.
