2 Use the § and ¶ keys to select between the
two options:
x 100 and x 8.
To determine whether your controller is sending (a)
locate commands or (b) fast wind commands, enter a
locate operation from the remote controller.
If a true location command is being sent, the screen
display shows the location point for a few seconds
and only the
F FWD U and REW T keys light. If
the second type of command is received, the display
does not change, the fast forward and rewind indica-
tors light steadily, and the
SHUTTLE indicator c
flashes.
10.3.6 Track mapping
When a controller arms and records on tracks, you
need to specify which tracks on the controller corre-
spond to particular tracks on the DA-98HR. The
video controller protocol allows for control of up to
eight digital and four analog audio tracks. The setting
described here allows you to map controller tracks to
DA-98HR tracks.
This mapping does not imply any correspondence
between the user interface of the controller and the
DA-98HR tracks—it refers to the relationship
between the command signals transmitted by the
controller and the DA-98HR tracks. The relationship
between the user interface of the controller and the
command signals must be determined using the con-
troller itself.
NOTE
Not all eight tracks may be available , depending on the
available track setting (6.2.1, “Available tracks”). Unavail-
able tracks will simply be ignored.
1 Go to menu group 6, move the cursor to Trk
Map
(track mapping) and press ENTER:
The lines above show the analog and digital tracks to
which the DA-98HR tracks on the bottom line are
currently assigned.
The terms “analog” and ‘digital” used here have
nothing to do with whether tracks actually are analog
or digital. They correspond to the terms “Analog”
and “Digital” tracks which are used by the controller.
In the assignment above, therefore, when the control-
ler refers to analog track 3, it is actually addressing
DA-98HR track 3, and when referring to digital track
4, it is addressing DA-98HR track 8.
2 Use the § and ¶ keys to select the track map-
ping for use with your setup. The pre-set
options available are shown below:
There are no user-settable track mappings, but these
pre-set mappings are designed to cover almost every
set of circumstances.
10.3.7 Timecode track mapping
This is a special instance of track mapping, where the
track corresponding to analog track 3 in the control-
ler’s command signals is mapped either to the digital
audio track selected above (10.3.6, “Track map-
ping”), or to the DA-98HR’s dedicated timecode
track.
1 Go to menu group 6, move the cursor to

and press ENTER:
2 Use the § and ¶ keys to select between
enable and disable.
If you choose
disable, the track referred
to by the controller’s command signals as
“analog 3” will be the audio track designated
as “analog 3” in the
