Timer Recording

Tape Speed Auto Change Function

During a timer recording performed in SP mode, this function automatically changes the tape speed if the unit determines that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the entire programme.

If the remaining tape time is still not sufficient even in LP (EP) mode, the programme cannot be recorded to the end.

The tape speed will change as follows:

PAL system:

SP # LP

NTSC system:

SP # EP

This function cannot change the recording speed to the EP mode for PAL system.

e.g. NTSC system (when using a 60-min. tape) Timer programming

1st programme

2nd programme (60 min.)

(30 min.)

at EP

 

The tape length must be set correctly (lpage 24). Some tapes may not work correctly.

If the recording speed changes during a timer recording, some picture distortion will occur at that point.

Notes:

If timer recording is not completed (due to insufficient tape or cancellation by the user), the programmed timer recording data will be cancelled from the memory by 4 A.M. two days later.

However, if the timer recording function is activated at that time, the programmed timer recording data will not be cancelled. After you cancel the programmed timer recording data, the current tape speed during the stop mode is displayed.
