WORKING WITH MARK IN AND MARK OUT

For each Media Player machine you can set a Mark In and a Mark Out point.
These are Timecode values where you want to cue the player to. To avoid the
phrase Mark In or Mark Out, only Mark In is used in the following.

2.14.3.1 Entering Mark In

There are two ways to set Mark In

1. Directly from the tape.

To learn Mark In from the current tape position:
Press and hold the MP button of the player and then press Mark In.
To indicate that there is a Mark In learned, the button is then lit.

2. Manual timecode entry in the numeric keypad.

To enter the timecode by numeric keypad:

D

Press Mark In. If there was already a Mark In learned, this will be

shown in the Machine Control Display.

D

The numeric keypad lights up and Mark In flashes.

D

Enter the timecode.
You do not have to type leading zeros.
Typing 1, 2, 3 will give you the timecode 00:00:01:23.

Pressing Clear will erase the timecode you entered so far, so you can
type in the correct timecode.

D

To close the timecode entry, press Enter. Mark In stops flashing and
is lit.

D

Pressing

Mark In again cancels the entry, so the previous Mark In is

not changed.

D

To clear Mark In: Press Mark In, press Clear, press Enter.

D

Set the timecode to 00:00:00:00: Press Mark In, press 0”, press Enter.
