Remote 48 Interface Additions
While the Remote 48 has some displays and controls in common with the front panel, the larger
more elaborate remote unit also has some of its own additional and unique controls.
Jog/Shuttle/Data Wheel
The JOG button, the SHUTTLE button, and the Jog/Shuttle/Data
WHEEL (simply referred to as the WHEEL in most cases) are found
along the lower two-thirds of the right-hand side of the Remote 48.
The JOG button enables the Jog mode, which couples the transport
playback speed in both directions directly to the movement of the
WHEEL.
The SHUTTLE button also enables an off-speed bi-directional
WHEEL control mode. However in Shuttle mode, the playback
speed is governed by the amount of offset either forward or
backward from the position of the WHEEL at the time Shuttle mode
is engaged.
The Jog/Shuttle/Data Wheel itself has two functions on the Remote
48:
1) Transport Jogging (Scrub) and Shuttle as described above and as described in detail in the
Advanced Transport Controls section (page 52). When using these features, note that
display of the off-speed rates is shown in the VARI indicator to the left of the TAPE
TIME. See the following section.
2) Data entry. The data wheel becomes available for data entry in the Locate Time and
Cues displays during certain Autolocator operations. Data entry mode is overridden
whenever either the Shuttle or Jog modes are enabled.
LOCATE TIME display with Cue & Varispeed Indication
Just below the Current Time on the Remote 48 work-surface is the LOCATE TIME display. The
Locate Time is a recalled, entered or edited time value that is used for the general Locate
command, among other things. The Locate Time is so called because it is the target time for the
next Locate command. A single press of the LOCATE button causes the Current Time to jump to
the Locate Time. This is a primary operating characteristic of any tactile
Autolocator including
the Remote 48.
In this operating paradigm, the locating sequence usually starts with getting the target location
loaded into the Locate Time. This differs substantially from the locator built into the HDR 24/96
GUI, it should be noted. The GUI provides for click-activated locating to any displayed Cue or
Dedicate Locate, and allows direct editing of the
Current Time (page 24) and other times (see
Editing Times in the GUI , page 21). These computer-interface-style features mean that queuing
up values into a workspace such as the Locate Time is not really needed. From the standpoint of
the GUI the Locate Time is really just another Dedicated Locate (only it doesn’t have a number).
From the standpoint of the Remote 48, this dual time display is a highly integral part of its
workings. You can get a more detail description of the
Dual Time Displays in the Autolocator on
page 54.
