STOP KEY FUNCTION
Changes the function of the STOP key from the Stop command to Jog still. The default is still.
SHUTTLE FORWARD AND REVERSE LIMITS
Specifies the maximum Shuttle speeds, expressed in multiples of Play speed. This feature allows Shuttle
speed to be limited to that witch provides the best compromise between speed and recognizable picture. It
does not affect the Rewind/Fast Fwd speeds. If in Shuttle while using this menu item, the results take effect
as you make the adjustment. The best way to set this item is as follows: Set to zero, exit this menu item,
tap the SHTL key and turn the Knob to the maximum speed. Since the limit is set at zero, the tape won't
move. Then reenter this menu item and adjust the maximum speed as desired, hit ENTER.
