OPERATING WEST POSITIONS
MainSelector positions
The [MainSelector] is easy to manipulate even while wear-
ing heavy winter gloves; it gives direct access to all essential
functions.
The OPERATING (West) positions control the recording, an-
notation and playback of audio files. To get access to the
Rec&Play positions, press and hold the blue [shift] button
while rotating the [MainSelector] (p.48 & p.49).
The OPERAND (East) positions, which establish Cantar's oper-
ating parameters, are described on p.26.
