PerfecTape®

PerfecTape® is an exclusive Mitsubishi feature that tests the quality of video tapes you will record on. After each test, the VCR will adjust its internal circuitry in order to make the best possible recording on your tape.

setting up PerfecTape®

You can set up PerfecTape® to function two ways.

If you want the VCR to automatically test any non-recorded tapes when the tape is loaded, select AUTO.

If you do not want the VCR to automatically test tapes, select MANUAL. PerfecTape® will now function only when you start a test. Any tape with the erasure prevention tab intact can be manually tested.

It will not automatically test recorded tapes – you must choose to test those yourself.

3Complete steps 1 and 2 on the previous page. Customize choices menu appears. Use the ADJUST buttons to select PerfecTape.

4Press ENTER to set PerfecTape to AUTO or MANUAL.

5Press MENU twice to turn off the menus.

1Load a tape that has not been recorded into the VCR.

The VCR will display the testing status screen. When testing, the VCR records for one second, then evaluates the recording it made. The entire test takes about 8 seconds. During this time, the PT light on the front panel will flash. If you wish to cancel the test, press STOP on the remote while the PT light is still flashing.

When the test is done, the VCR will display the rating of your tape for 8 seconds. On the front panel, the PT light will shine steadily, indicating that the VCR has set its internal circuitry to make the best possible recording on this tape.
