Chapter 4 Operation Tips
Basic Operation Procedure
Cue Operation Procedure
Since the cue data is stored in the work memory when storing it by using
the STORE button on the CUE window, data stored in the work memory is
cleared when restarting the unit or turning off the power of the unit. Store
the data in the current title by selecting KEEP on the TITLE menu which
opens by touching the TITLE button or save the data as a title file by using
the SAVE button on the TITLE MANAGER window.
To perform the cue operation by manipulating buttons and controls on the
unit, use the buttons, the SNAPSHOT SET buttons and the ten key pad on
the Automation panel on the unit.
To perform a cue operation on the window, use the CUE window.
For details of the buttons and windows, see “Automation panel” on page 25,
“CUE window” on page 66 and “TITLE MANAGER window” on page 72.
Initial cue
• CUE 1 is reserved as an initial cue to indicate the start point of the
automation.
• When the timecode before the timecode specified for the initial cue is
entered, automation data does not become effective until the timecode
advances beyond the timecode of the initial CUE.
• To change the initial cue, perform the same operating procedure as for
changing other cue points. But if you set the timecode after the
timecode of the initial cue, automation data between the former
timecode and the timecode newly set will be lost. Similarly, you can
change the snapshot linked with the initial cue. But if you change it, an
inconsistency problem may occur between the snapshot data and the
dynamic automation data.
Storing a cue point
The operation necessary to register CUE 2 and to link with the snapshot is
explained below.
To store the cue point using the ten key pad
1 Press the TC LINK button on the unit so that the button lights up.
2 Create the control settings you want to store by manipulating the unit.
3 Press the SNAPSHOT SET button so that the button lights up.
4 Enter the desired cue number (02 in this example) using the ten key
pad.
