Manual Tracking

Your video recorder is equipped with automatic tracking control. For most tapes this will automatically adjust the tracking to suit the particular tape you are playing. In some circumstances it may be necessary to make manual tracking adjustments. This is usually only associated with old or worn tapes or recordings made on old or worn recorders. If the automatic tracking control fails to operate correctly you will see noise bars across the picture as shown on the left below. To correct this you can override the automatic control and adjust

the tracking manually by pressing the TV PROG buttons.

1

 

OVERRIDE AUTOMATIC TRACKING

 

Press

on the remote to engage manual tracking.

2

 

ADJUST TRACKING MANUALLY

 

Press TV PROG + or to adjust tracking.

3

 

RETURN TO AUTOMATIC TRACKING

 

Press

on the remote to re-engage automatic

 

tracking.

 

NOTE:

When a new tape is inserted, the recorder returns to the automatic tracking mode automatically.

Digital TBC/NR

Your video recorder is equipped with the Digital TBC (Time Base Corrector) that removes jitter from fluctuating video signals to deliver a stable picture even with old tapes and rental cassettes.

The on/off of Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise and enables clear picture reproduction is also linked to this function.

* The default setting is "ON".

We recommend that you use the Digital TBC feature when...

... playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.

... playing back a tape repeatedly used.

... using this video recorder as the player for editing.

ACTIVATE DIGITAL TBC/NR

 

Press DIGITAL TBC/NR so that the button lights up.

 

 

 

To turn off DIGITAL TBC/NR, press DIGITAL TBC/NR

 

again so that the light goes off.

 

 

 

NOTES:

If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception condition, there may be cases where the picture becomes more stable with Digital TBC/NR set to off.

When Digital TBC/NR is set to on, if you play back a tape where certain types of signals are recorded (using a PC or some character generators), the playback picture may be distorted. If this is the case, turn off Digital TBC/NR.

Digital 3R

Digital 3R picture system applies edge correction to the luminance signal to enhance detail.
