• Entering a number into the Frames field larger than 16 will be converted auto-

example, if 321215 is entered, the field is resolved to 00:32:12:15.
• Enter two-digit numbers separated by : and they will be parsed right to left. For
example, if 12:34:22 is entered, the field is resolved to 00:12:34:22.
• If a number greater than 59 is entered into the seconds or minutes field, it is
properly converted. For example, if 12:78:14 is entered, the field is resolved to
00:13:18:14.

the Conform screen is entered into the Frames field, it is properly converted.

Click in the Start Time field to begin entering a note. Press the Enter or Tab keys on
the keyboard to move one field to the right. The fields do not have to be entered from
left to right and some fields are calculated automatically. For example, you can select an
Operation before setting time fields. If Start and End Times are entered, the Duration
field is calculated automatically. If Start Time and Duration fields are entered, End is
calculated automatically. The Total Change field is not set by the user but is calculated
automatically. It displays the net time change for all notes up to and including the
present one.
