ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
Although not technically hidden functions, the following are additional advanced
features that are not obvious:
Holding Stop for at least 3 seconds will force the tape to unthread.
Double-clicking the Fast Forward or Rewind button (pressing the button twice
within 500 milliseconds) will cause the tape to wind at the fastest possible speed
(approximately 85X play speed) with the capstan disengaged.
Holding the Search button for at least 3 seconds will allow editing of the Search
Master (see M20 manual section 8.4d).
While in a locate name field, pressing the Up or Down button while holding Name
will scroll through a list of 16 default names. To customize a name in this list, edit
the name, then hold Name and press Record. The list of user-defined names will be
retained through a power-cycle and will resort back to the default names with a
user reset.
Holding Sample Rate and pressing Up, Down, or 0 will allow Pull Up, Pull Down or
No Pull Up/Down, respectively.
Holding Edit while pressing Rollback will allow editing of the Rollback time. Refer
to the CADI user manual for further details.
