Dictating

Useful Functions

xLTR (letter) signal

You can record electronic index signals on the tape with the HU-80 while the unit is set in the recording (dictating), telephone recording, stop or playback mode.

LTR (letter=end of document) signal: Record at the end of each dictated material.

When the Auto stop function (page 18) is activated (AUTO STOP:ON), the tape automatically stops at each index signal when it is rewound or fast forwarded. Dictated material can be located without the user’s having to listen to the entire tape.

To record the LTR signal

Press the LTR button on the HU-80.

Each time the button is pressed, the LTR INDEX lamp (BM-87DST) lights up for about 3 seconds.

LTR

Notes

The LTR signal should be recorded with the intervals of more than 6 seconds.

Playback sound is muted while the LTR signal is recorded. However, the recorded material will be protected.

While the LTR signal is being recorded with the SPEED CONTROL selector set to ON, the tape will run at the normal tape speed.

xMonitoring while dictating

The recording can be monitored through the headphones. Connect the supplied stereo headphones to the i jack located on the left side of the unit. You can hear the sound in stereo through the stereo headphones. The sound is monaural through the built-in speaker. Adjust the VOLUME monitor if necessary.
