The Transport Section

The Transport Section is comprised primarily of the Transport Controls: Rewind, Fast Forward, Stop, Play and Record, and also the Jog / Shuttle mechanism.

Other controls that can be considered part of the Transport Section include the Keypad, since once of its functions is to send Locate commands.

The M buttons may be used to turn machines on and off, to determine, for example, which machines will go into Play when Play is pressed.

The Shift button is included, because the Transport and M buttons have Shifted functions as well.

For example, Play can start a hard disk recorder, while Shift Play starts a VTR.
