2) Use the numeric keypad [16] to enter the
number of the location memory you want to
recall.
The number will “fill up” from the right. If you
want to recall memory
03 , for example, you only
need to press the 3 key, but if you want to recall
memory 13 , press the 1 key, followed by the 3
key.
3) Press the ENTER/LOAD key [20].
The MEMORY NO. display will stop flashing, and
the time value stored in that memory will appear
on the
LOCATE TIME/VALUE display.
4) Press the LOC key [41].
The tape will locate to the location point that has
just been recalled.
If you enter a location memory in which nothing
has been stored, this is not an error, but the
LOCATE TIME/VALUE display will show
00:00:00:00 .
If you enter the wrong location memory, press the
CANCEL [19] key. The MEMORY NO. display
will stop flashing and return to its previous value..
6.5.8 Repeated entry of location points
You can also use the CUE STR key [39] to store a
series of location points as a tape is played.
1) Recall a location memory.
The location memory immediately after the
recalled memory will be overwritten, so make sure
that it is a location you do not want to keep.
2) Start playing (or recording) the tape.
The order of steps 1) and 2) can be reversed.
3) Press the CUE STR key.
The current tape location will be stored into the
location memory following the one you have just
recalled. No confirmation is necessary.
The LOCATE TIME/VALUE display will now
show the value of the time just stored in the loca-
tion memory, and the
MEMORY NO. display will
show the memory number in which it has been
stored.
Pressing the CUE STR key again will store the
new tape location into the next memory location.
These location memories can be recalled and
edited in the same way as location memories
entered in any other way. There is also one level of
undo available to replace one location memory
which may have been entered accidentally. See
6.7.4, “Undo function” for details. Note that there
is no “redo” function available.
6.5.9 Editing a location memory
When a memory has been recalled, it is possible to
edit it, either by replacing the contents with a
value entered from the numeric keypad or using
the jog/shuttle controls:
1) Use the DATA INC/DEC key [27] to set the jog/
shuttle controls into data editing mode.
2) Use the JOG dial [28] to “nudge” the values
displayed on the LOCATE TIME/VALUE
display [15].
The value will flash.
3) Confirm the entry with the STR key [17].
The LOCATE TIME/VALUE display will stop
flashing, and the MEMORY NO. display [14] will
start to flash.
4) Press the ENTER/LOAD key to store the edited
value to the same location memory, or the
numeric keypad, followed by the
ENTER/
LOAD key to store the edited value to a
different location.
6.6 Repeating a section
You can set two points, independently of the loca-
tion memories, which allow you to repeat play-
back continuously between them.
1) From menu group 3, move the cursor to
Repeat , and press SELECT :
2) Use the DOWN key to select the Start
parameter if it is not already visible.
NOTE
The points that are set here using the RC-898 are indepen-
dent of any repeat points set on the DTRS units. When
repeat times are set using the RC-898, the repeat function is
not available from the DTRS front panel.
