Setting the action for a rewind operation
On the P-Bus timeline, when the [REWIND] button in the
keyframe control block is pressed the action set for the first
keyframe is not executed; when the [RUN] button is
pressed, then the first keyframe action is executed.
To execute an action when the [REWIND] button is
pressed, it is necessary to set this action (Rewind Action).
To carry out this setting, in the Device >P-Bus Timeline
menu, press [Rewind Action] to recall the Rewind Action
menu. In this setting screen, use the same setting method
as in the screen for setting an action on the P-Bus timeline.
Alternatively, you can select the reverse arrangement,
whereby when the [REWIND] button is pressed, this
executes the action set for the first keyframe, and when the
[RUN] button is pressed the first keyframe action is not
executed. In this case, the Rewind Action setting is still
valid.
For details, see “Setting the First Keyframe When a
Rewind is Executed” (page 519).
