Locators in Safe Mode

If you prefer to work with locators a bit more slowly and carefully, you can use Safe
mode. Safe mode allows you to work with locators in a LOCATOR window that shows
each locator’s number and name. You can also store and clear locators in Safe mode.
While this is a slower way to work, it provides greater certainty that you’ve got the right
locator.
The UTILITY menu’s LOCATOR/SCENE TYPE parameter turns Safe mode on or off—
see Page 364. Its default value is Quick. To turn on Safe mode, select Safe.

Recalling a Locator in Safe Mode

1. Press LOCATOR—the LOCATOR window opens.
2. Turn the TIME/VALUE dial to scroll through the list
until the desired locator is in view.
3. Enter the locator’s two-digit number on the keypad—
an arrow appears to the left of the locator in the list,
and “Locate? appears in the window.
4. Press ENTER/YES to recall the selected locator and close the window, or just press
ENTER/NO twice to leave the window without recalling a locator.
You can store a new locator at the timeline’s current position by scrolling to an unused
locator line and pressing F3 (GetNow).
