Connecting
Connecting the ES-SloMo is straightforward. Connect the large 25
pin D-Sub connector to the rear of the ES-SloMo. Secure the
connector the unit by screwing the lock screws into the connector.
Connect each deck or video server to the smaller 9 pin D-Sub
connectors. Some video servers have more than one connector,
which allow simultaneous control of the recorder and player. In
these cases, connect each port to its own connector on the ES-
SloMo.
Lastly, connect the unit to a source of power. This can be either
from the power mains using the provided power supply or directly
from 9-12 volts DC. The connector is a 2.1mm coaxial power
connector. The center pin is positive. A power switch on the rear
panel turns the unit on or off.

Initialization
The ES-SloMo configuration and TBar calibration can be reset by
holding the EJECT button while applying power to the unit. After
doing so, the display will show:
Then the display will show:
Follow the directions on the display.
This calibrates the TBar for optimum range. These values are
stored in nonvolatile memory and should never need to be
changed. After performing this, the unit will revert to normal
operation.

Menu
There are a number of user configurable items that should be
checked and set for your application.
To go to the menu, press the MENU button. Select the menu item
by turning the jog wheel. If you are in Shuttle Mode, the display
will tell you to go to the Jog mode. Press the wheel to go to Jog
mode, and press the MENU button again.
As the Jog wheel is turned, different menu items are displayed on
the top line of the window.
There are two types of items accessed this way: Parameters and
Commands. Parameters allow the user to modify settings and are
stored in nonvolatile memory. Commands allow you to perform
certain operations such as a memory dump or clear memory. In
the case of parameters, you will see the currently selected and
stored value on the bottom line. An arrow of the left side of the
display points to the top line, indicating that the menu item is now
being selected by the wheel.
