Keypad Group
These keys are located in the central portion of the front panel, directly under the LCD. In addition to the
numeric keys 0-9 (which are mainly used to enter and otherwise manipulate time code), keys performing
various other operations are also located here:
•
(CLR) the clear time code key
•
(CAPT) time code capture key
•
SHIFT key
•
(STO) store key
•
(RCL) recall key
•
(LOOP) looping key
•
(LOC) locate transport key
NUMERIC KEYS
(0-9)
In the Normal state, these keys are used to enter a time code value into the hold
register (the bottom line of the LCD). The numeric keys are also used to access ten
time code memory registers and in combination with the SHIFT, RCL, STO,
LOOP and LOC keys to store or recall time code to and from the various special
time code registers. In the Setup state, these keys directly select menu banks, and
are used to enter passwords, date, time, and other numeric entry. The Error and
Track states may also use these keys to enter a password or other numeric value.
Time code values are entered into the entry register, beginning with the right-hand
digit which moves left as additional digits are entered. Use CLR to reset the entry
register to zero {00:00:00,00}. As an example of the entry register’s use; to
enter a time code of 00:34:00,15 (thirty-four minutes and 15 frames); press
CLR one or two times (to set the entry register to zero), then the 3 (three) key,
4 (four) key, 0 (zero) key, 0 (zero) key, 1 (one) key, and 5 (five) key. The time
code is displayed as the numbers are keyed into the hold register.
To store the entry register time code into one of the ten memory registers, press
STO followed by one of the numeric keys. This stores the entry register time code
into the selected memory register (0 - 9). The stored time code can later be recalled
by pressing RCL then the appropriate numeric key. The entry register time can also
be stored to the special-purpose registers that are not display-only (Lynx Sync,
Offset, Time, Out, In), replacing the previous register contents. In this case the shift
key is added to the store command key sequence (STO then SHIFT+ the
appropriate numeric key).
SHIFT+
NUMERIC KEY
The shifted function for each numeric key recalls the special-purpose register
contents listed above each numeric key, and for certain registers (the registers
associated with keys 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9) performs an immediate transport locate to
the register time code value. If STO is pressed before SHIFT+ one of the numeric
keys is pressed, then the active register contents (bottom line of the display) are
stored in the target register location (providing, of course, that the target register is
a writeable and not a read-only register).
LYNX SYNC
(SHIFT+0)
This register holds the MMP-16 sync point time which is used in conjunction
with the master sync point on the Lynx bus to calculate the MMP-16 offset.
Storing a value to this register automatically calculates this offset.
