Location memories

The DM-3200 allows the storage and recall of up to ten location memories, allowing easy location of the controlled devices to predetermined cue points.

Selecting the location point display

As explained in “LOCATE DISPLAY mode” on page 33, the LOCATE DISPLAY MODE setting in the OPTION SETUP screen is used to determine whether the LED time counter shows the location memories as they are entered, edited and recalled, or whether they are shown as “popup” panels on the LCD display screen.

When this section mentions “the display” showing location memory values, this refers to the display that has been selected in this option.

NOTE

Depending on the settings for frame display (“Edit Frames” on page 97), the frames value may or may not be shown on the display when location memories are being edited, etc.

Storing a location memory “on the fly”

This procedure allows you to set a location memory, regardless of whether timecode is currently being received or not. If timecode is not currently being received, the value of the location memory is the last received value as shown on the time counter on the display.

The value on the time counter, regardless of source, is stored as the location memory. This may be time- code or MTC.

1Press the MEMO key. The indicator starts to flash.

2Press any of the numeric keys, corresponding to the ten location memories available.

3The MEMO indicator stops flashing and the currently-displayed timecode value is stored in the location memory corresponding to the numeric key which was pressed.

Manually entering and editing a location memory

The procedure below can be used for editing existing location memories or for adding new ones:

1Press the EDIT key. The indicator starts to flash.

2Press one of the number keys to select the location memory which will store the value. The EDIT indicator lights steadily.

3Enter the timecode value using the numeric keypad. The display shows the value, “filling up” from the right digit towards the left.

Or, if the EDIT key is pressed again after the location memory number has been pressed, the indicator starts to flash again, allowing the

checking and editing of another location mem- ory.

4Press the ENTER key when the timecode value for the location memory has been entered.

5Press EDIT again once to edit another location memory, or press EDIT twice to exit the loca- tion memory editing mode.

If the CLR key is pressed before the ENTER key, a location memory entry which has been made in error is cleared. Pressing ENTER stores the cleared memory.

It is possible to switch between the capture, edit and location procedures at any time.

Location to a location memory

When the location memories have been entered, they are recalled in the following way:

1Press the DIRECT key. The indicator lights.

2Press any one of the numeric keys, corre- sponding to the ten location memories.

3The controlled device locates to the memory stored in the location memory.

What happens next depends on the PLAY MODE setting (see “Play Mode” on page 97).
