Playback Using Jog/Shuttle Ring - Hitachi VT-FX980EUKN Instruction Manual

PLAYBACK USING JOG/SHUTTLE RING

Use of the jog/shuttle ring/knob allows many different kinds of
playback – slow-motion play, normal play, forward search,
reverse slow-motion play, reverse play and reverse search.
Note: If the shuttle ring/knob is operated in stop mode, the VCR
enters the fast forward or rewind mode.
How to use the jog dial on the VCR
Turn the jog dial during play or still play for forward or reverse
frame advance.
• Every time the jog dial is brought to the point where a slight
click is felt, the picture will move by one frame.
• Releasing the jog dial returns to still play.
How to use the shuttle ring/knob
If the shuttle ring/knob is operated during normal or still playback,
turning the ring/knob to the positions indicated gives the special
effects shown.
• Release the shuttle ring/knob for normal play or still play.
• If the shuttle ring/knob is operated during still play and is then
released, the VCR re-enters the still play mode. If the VCR is left
for more than 30 seconds to one minute after still play is
restored from reverse play, reverse slow-motion play or slow-
motion play, the VCR will enter the stop mode automatically to
prevent damage to the tape.

speed is slightly different.
