V. OPERATION
AMP PROTOCOL ONLY:
Using the "WORK FOLDER" menu item: select the work folder into which
the clips will be created and saved.
Also select the "CLIP SAVE" item and choose whether to save the subclips
on the video server or not.
A. Start Record
To start the recording is a simple two-key press operation. Pressing the
[SHIFT] + [RECORD] Keys will create (name) the Master Clip on the
record channel and then put the channel into the record mode. Each
Master Clip is named according to its channel number and a clip id suffix.
The default name DNFRECxy is created, where x is a record channel
number and y is the suffix which is automatically incremented starting
with 0 (zero) and incremented to 9 with each record start. When 9 is
reached a message will display “No free clips on channel x. Please delete
clips DNFRECx0 – DNFRECx9 from the server”.
The default name can be changed to any six characters using the setup
menu item “Rec Clipname”. The suffix is still added to differentiate
between the channels.
B. Gang Function
If more than one channel is going to be used during the session, a GANG
must be established between all the record channels.

[3], [4].
Pressing the VTR key a second time will remove it from the gang.
Press the [GANG] key again to complete the gang function.

Press the [GANG] key to gang the two channels. Press the [GANG]
key again to un-gang the channels.
