Playing a Cut
There are a number of ways to play a cut.
Play a Cut Using a Hot Key
If the cut has been assigned to a Hot Key, simply press the hot key to play the cut. Refer to
Assigning A Cut To a Hot Key on Page 10 for instructions on assigning a cut to a Hot Key.
Play a Cut by selecting the cut in the Display Module window
A cut that is currently displayed on the Display Module can be played simply by Pressing PLAY.
To display a cut in the Display Module, use the SCROLL KEYS.
To locate a cut by name or index number, use the FIND key. Refer to Locating A Cut Using
FIND on Page 18.
Play a Cut Using the rear-panel GPI
Instant Replay includes a General Purpose Interface (GPI) that duplicates the P
LAY
button. It is
on a 1/8” mini phone jack on the back panel. Connect a momentary switch (console button,
footswitch, etc.) to the back panel jack marked GPI/PLAY. This must be enabled before it can be
used.
To enable GPI, press M
ENU
->CONFIGURATION->GPI INPUT then ENTER
Select ENABLE using the SCROLL KEYS. Press ENTER
When you activate the remote momentary switch, Instant Replay will behave as if you had
pressed P
LAY
. You can also initiate recording remotely by putting Instant Replay in Record
Ready and activating the remote switch.
Note that activating the remote switch will also CANCEL P
AUSE
if it is active. While Instant
Replay is Paused, pressing a Hot-Key displays the Assigned Cut’s title and statistics but does not
play it. This lets you check the Hot-Key assignment silently, and is most useful in a live
broadcast or performance application. For example, an engineer can find and cue up a Hot-Key
Cut to be played, and on-air talent can start playback with the remote switch.
Pausing a Cut
Press
P
AUSE TO
interrupt playback of a Cut. Press PAUSE again to resume playback.

Note that while Instant Replay is paused, pressing a Hot-Key displays the Assigned Cut’s title and
statistics, but the Cut will not play until P
AUSE
or P
LAY
is pressed. Several Hot-Keys can be pressed
in series to see what Cuts are assigned to them, allowing the Hot-Key Assignments to be reviewed
silently. Only the last one pressed will play when Pause is released.
