script, particularly during a rehearsal. The shuttle allows you to scroll backwards and forwards,
as well as “fast-reverse” and “fast-forward” to different points of a script.
The speed increments allow you to alter reading speeds, where you can set low and high values
at the different speed increments. Changing speed increments is particularly useful as it allows
you to synchronize your reading speed with the reading speed of the presenter.
Removing your hand returns the shuttle to the centre position and stops scrolling.
Scrolling with the jog control
If you assign to scroll control to the jog, you can also choose one of the following settings:
Sensitive jog speed allows scrolling to take place at relatively
high speed as soon as the jog is moved to the right. Turning
the jog back to the left lets you return to the original position
at relatively high speed.
Normal jog speed allows scrolling at a normal speed to take
place as soon as the jog is moved to the right. Turning the jog
back to the left lets you return to the original position at
normal speed.
Insensitive jog speed allows scrolling to take place at a
relatively slow speed when the jog is turned to the right.
Turning the jog back to the left lets you return to the original
position at a relatively slow speed.
The sensitive setting is best suited for more experienced operators who are familiar with rapidly
pinpointing information in a script. It is also suitable for performing operations quickly such as
during a time-constrained rehearsal.
The insensitive setting is suited for scripts with fewer lines of text, where performing tasks at
speed is not essential.
Story jumps with the shuttle
Story jumps can be assigned to the shuttle. By turning the wheel slightly to the right, it is possible
to jump to the next story in the runorder. Turning the wheel slightly to the left will jump to the
previous story in the runorder. The following subsections describe user suitability for the shuttle
and the procedure that needs to be followed to set story jumps.
This is particularly useful for operators that have many smaller scripts in their runorders, and
need to check multiple scripts quickly. Using story jumps is particularly useful during a rehearsal.
Story jumps with the jog
By turning the jog to the right, you jump to the next story. Turning the jog to the left will jump to
the previous story in the runorder. Using the jog wheel for story jumps is particularly useful for
those users that need to jump quickly from one script to the next, such as when scripts need to
be changed quickly during a rehearsal.
Assign actions to the buttons of a ShuttlePRO
The most common functions when prompting are listed below. These functions are usually
assigned to the first five buttons of a multi-button controller.
