Tips:

If you press an edit point key whose corresponding memory does not hold data, "00H 00M 00S 00SF" is shown. You can enter the desired time from this condition and store it to the edit point memory.

2. Enter the desired time.

There are two methods for time entry as below.

• Use the <</>> keys to move the flashing (edit) point, and use the jog dial to enter a value.

If the value of the edit point overruns or underruns, the value of the left digit increments or decre- ments respectively.

• Use the numeric keys to enter a time directly.

Each number is entered from the right digit, which moves left as additional digits are entered. For example, to enter "00H 12M 15S 00F 00SF", press 0 -> 0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 1 -> 5 -> 0 -> 0 -> 0 -> 0.

<Note>

You must always set an IN point earlier than the corresponding OUT point. (i.e. SOURCE IN <

SOURCE OUT, DEST IN < DEST OUT)

Tips:

If you enter an inappropriate value to one of these digits, the unit automatically calculates and set the proper time.

For example, if you enter "00H 12M 75S 00F 00SF", the stored time value is "00H 13M 15S 00S 00SF".

3. Press the [STORE] key.

"Select Memories?" is shown on the display, as in step 2 on the previous page. Ignore the display and go to the next step.

4. Press a desired edit point key.

The edited time data is stored to the appropriate memory.
