Changing the settings

1 Press the MENU button.

The setup menu screen appears on the TV monitor, and the setup menu item number appears on the counter display.

Each time the FF button is pressed (for about 1.5 seconds), the item number and item name are selected and displayed alternately.

(If a setup was performed previously, the screen on which the last change was made is displayed.)

2 Turn the search dial to select the item to be set. The menu screen cursor (2) moves, and the item number on the display flashes.

O When the dial is turned clockwise, the item number is incremented from 001 5 002 5 003 5 004 and so on; conversely, when it is turned counterclockwise, the item number is decremented.

O When the FF button or REW button is pressed while holding down the PLAY button, the next or previous item is selected.

O Whenever possible, limit the use of the search dial to the JOG mode.

3 At the position where the change is to be made, turn the search dial while holding down the search button.

The settings on the menu screen and display now flash.

When the dial is turned clockwise, the setting number is incremented; conversely, when it is turned counterclockwise, it is decremented.

4 Upon completion of the setting, release the search button.

The item number now flashes.

O When the search dial is in the SHTL mode, the item will move unless the dial is set to the center position.

5 When other items are to be changed, repeat steps 2 to 4.

6 Press the SET button.

The changes are stored in the memory.

To disregard the new settings and restore the old settings instead, press the MENU button.

O To return the setup contents to the factory settings (initial settings), press the RESET button while the menu is displayed. The following message is displayed.

SETUP-MENU INIT SET

YES<PLAY>/NO<STOP>

If the PLAY button is now pressed, the factory settings are reinstated.

<Notes>

O If the RESET button is pressed to restore the factory settings, only the user files currently in use are restored. The other user files remain unaffected.

O The changes made to the SYSTEM menu contents are recorded also by pressing the MENU button to close the menu screen.
