1) DlyGo to menu group1F6, moveramtheecursor to Rec

(Reco Delay) and pr ss ENTER:

2)Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the record delay in frames.

This is he time that the DA-98 should delay between receiving a record command and actually starting record.

This value can be between 0and 9, or defaults to Auto. The value of the Auto setting depends on the emulation selected, as shown below:

The delay is calculated in the following way: the first frame boundary of the video signal received

at theafter the record command is received is counted as”1”. This number is incre- mented as subsequent frames are received, and when it equals the record delay value as set above, recording starts.

If the value is set to 0, recording starts instantly on receipt of the command, and if to 1, when the first frame edge is received.

If no correct video sync signals are being received, or if video sync mode is not enabled for some rea- son, internal data frame timing (every 30ms) is used instead.

This delay is also used for controlling the timing of the monitor switching.

11.1.4 Cue-up tally

When a locate command is received while the DA-98 is in 9-pin protocol mode, the transport

locatesuto the desired position, and then goes into pa se modeeupT. ally

What is then returned to the controller depends on the following setting:

1) CueGo to pmenuTlygroupSt6,omovepthe cursor to (cue-up tally), and press ENTER:

2)UseStopthe UP and DOWN keys to select between

and Still.

Some controllers will

nly take their next action

when they know that

he controlled slaves are

stopped. Select the Stopvalue for use with these controllers.

Other controllers (e.g. the LYNX II and MicroL- ynx synchron zers) make a distinction between pause and s op. When using such synchronizers, select the Stillvalue.

11.1.5 Fast wind speed

There are two basic methods for locating used by controllers. The first method is to send a locate command. The second is to send fast wind and shuttle commands.

If the usual high speed winding of the DA-98 is used with the second method, the tape will almost invariable overshooot each time and never come to rest. For that reason, you can select between the fast windstmodesWi(atndS100 timpeseplaydspeed) and fast shuttle (8 imes play speed) d pending on the method used by your controll r.

1) FastGo to menuSpdgroupx16, move00the cursor to (fast wind s ed) and press

ENTER:
