Using the FlashMic

Jogswitch Description

Many of the FlashMic’s operating functions are accessed via the jogswitch on the bottom panel. These include power on/off, navigation through the various internal menus, adjustment of levels, and track selection for replay.

Operation of the jogswitch for each specific FlashMic function is described in detail in the section of the manual covering the function. However, because the jogswitch has several physical movements associated with it, an overview is given here.

The jogswitch is a small wheel protruding from the base of the FlashMic. It is effectively three momentary-acting pushbuttons in one; it can be pressed inwards (from its rest position), or rotated in either direction. The actions are all spring-loaded so that the jogswitch always returns to its rest position. Each of the three possible movements can be either ‘long’ or ‘short’, giving a total of six possible actions. The FlashMic’s firmware determines a ‘long’ press to be one of greater than 2 seconds. duration, and as ‘short’ press to be one of less than 2 seconds.

The diagram below summarises the possible movements.

ENGLISH

Elsewhere in this manual, the following notations are used to denote the various types of jogswitch action. It is assumed that the FlashMic is orientated with the LCD display facing the user.
