Five ways of using the jog dial

1. Using the jog dial during playback
÷ Rotating the jog dial during playback causes the speed to
be accelerated (when rotated in the FWD+ direction) or
slowed down (when rotated in the REV– direction) in
accordance with the degree to which the dial is turned.
÷ Once the jog dial is no longer being turned, playback
resumes at its original speed.
2. Using the jog dial while playback is being paused
(Frame searching)
÷ Rotating the jog dial causes the player to begin searching
in 1-frame units.
÷ Rotate the jog dial at a fixed speed in the FWD+ direction
for playback at normal speed.
3. Rotating the jog dial after pressing the SEARCH
button while waiting for cueing (Cueing point
search)
Pressing either of the SEARCH button (1, ¡) while
waiting for cueing causes the player to enter cueing pause
mode, and rotating the jog dial at this time causes the player
to search for possible cueing points. Pressing the CUE button
after the player has advanced or rewound to a new cueing
point will then cause the new cueing point to be entered into
memory.
4. Rotating the jog dial while pressing the SEARCH
button during playback (Super-fast searching)
Rotating the jog dial in the direction you wish to search while
pressing the forward or reverse SEARCH button (1, ¡)
will cause the player to enter high-speed search mode.
5. Rotating the jog dial while pressing the TRACK
SEARCH button (Super-fast track searching)
Turning the jog dial in the direction you wish to search while
pressing the forward or reverse TRACK SEARCH button
(4, ¢) will cause the player to enter high-speed track
search mode, with the direction and speed of searching
being adjusted in accordance with the direction and degree in
which the jog dial is turned.
