The CLIP Menu

When you press the MENU button, this will be the first menu you see. It consists of features and

options pertaining to the clips themselves such as Naming and Deleting. Since you can delete

individual clips, formatting the drive which removes all clips from the disk media is also included

in this menu. Navigating in this menu is done by turning the scroll wheel.

CLIP LIST / CLIP WINDOW - Navigate to this field to select or change the clip to be modified.

Press the center button on the scroll wheel to select the list and see a drop down listing of all the

clips on the current disk. Use the wheel to scroll through the list and then the center button once

again to select a particular clip. The clip will now show in the clip window, and the duration time

code will be displayed. Clips can also be played and navigated using the ◄◄ and ►► buttons

while in this view.

RE-NAME CLIP - Pressing the center button on the scroll wheel when this field is highlighted will

bring up another window displaying the alphabet and some symbols. Navigating and selecting

characters with the scroll wheel will allow you to name clips with meaningful names rather than

just sequential clip IDs. Note that the physical buttons are used for Backspace, Delete All, Set

and Cancel name changes.

NAME NEXT CLIP - Selecting this field will allow you to name the next clip to be recorded. If the

new name ends with a number, subsequently recorded clips will have the same name with the

next sequential number (e.g. Awards01, Awards02, Awards03, etc.). The unit will increment only

as many numerals as provided: if given "Clip 1" it will stop at "Clip 9", if given "Clip 01" it will stop

at "Clip 99". Also the user must set the clip name every time they format (or change) the drive.

DELETE CLIP - Selecting this field will prompt you for a confirmation and upon that confirmation

the selected clip will be removed from the drive.
