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.
