created. The file consists of one frame at the current
tape position.
To cancel the file creation operation, click on the

Creating Record Entries
A record entry is a section of the tape for which a start and
end timecode pair has been defined. There must be at least
one record entry in a file (file top and file end). Up to 64
record entry pairs (including the file top and end) can be
defined for a single file. When you transfer a file
containing multiple record entries, the record entries are
transferred in the order in which they are defined in the file.
Use the following procedure to create record entries.
1
In the File Entry window, click on the Add button.
A record entry is created with the current tape position
as the entry top. A currently unused number is
assigned to the record entry.
2
Execute steps 3 to 5 for creating files to set the entry
top and entry end.
Modifying record entries

In the record entries list, activate the record entry that
you want to modify by clicking its number.
