Shuttle Wheel
Perhaps the most common use of a shuttle wheel is to
scroll through video frames. Rotating the shuttle wheel
to the right scrolls the program forward: rotating to the
left scrolls backward. The distance you turn the shuttle
wheel in either direction determines the playback
speed.
The shuttle wheel may also carry out some custom
functions in certain applications. Check the FOCUS
Enhancements website for more information (http://

Jog Wheel
The jog wheel is also commonly used in non-linear edit-
ing programs to scroll through pages. For example, in
Adobe Acrobat the CommandPost jog wheel scrolls
through the pages of a PDF document.
The jog wheel may also carry out some custom func-
tions in certain applications. Check the FOCUS

USB C ONNECTOR
The CommandPost USB connector is located on the
rear panel of the controller. To connect the controller
to your computer’s USB port, use the USB A/B cable
provided in the CommandPost package.

Keysets
Because you can program the CommandPost compo-
nents to perform whatever functions you want, the
function a given button performs might differ from one
application to another. For example, when running
Adobe Photoshop, pressing a particular button might
create a new 640x480 RGB document: pressing the
same button while running Adobe Premiere might
import a movie clip and set its duration to 5 seconds.
