How to DELETE Clips
.
Caution: Deleting clips is a destructive operation, and cannot be undone. Before performing DELETE, you must confirm
that all Clip IDs that you wish to DELETE are not CUED in any of the Abekas 6000 video channels. DELETE will skip any
clips that are LOADED or CUED (for protection of the cued clips).
You must also be sure that all Clip IDs that you wish to DELETE do not have the "clip locked" flag set, since DELETE will
skip all locked clip(s) (for protection of the locked clips). Please refer to the procedure “Locking / Unlocking a ClipID” on
page 10 below.
To be sure there are no CLIP ID’s you wish to DELETE in any video channels, toggle each of the eight video channel
buttons (
C h A
,
C h B
,
C h C
, etc.) and verify the clip ID’s are not cued, or to be really sure, just load clip ID
“0” (BLACK) into each of the video channels before performing DELETE (see “How to LOAD Clips” procedure on page 6
above). This will load BLACK into each video channel.
