JVC SR-9080 appendix Sensor Recording, Series Recording

6 RECORDING

6-5 Sensor Recording

Sensor recording is executed only when the VCR is in the Stop mode (Stop, Timer Record Standby or Operating Off mode)

and an alarm signal is input to the rear panel’s ALARM IN terminal.

Perform the settings for sensor recording in the same way as for “Alarm Recording” on page 39.

6 RECORDING

6-6 Series Recording

The series recording function facilitates recording over much longer periods using several connected SR-9080s. As soon as the tape ends in one VCR, the next VCR in the series starts recording. Using the counter end output function enables smoother switchovers during series recording, mostly eliminating interruptions between tapes.

The mechanism of the SR-9080 cannot be guaranteed if the sensor recording function is used frequently (100 times/day

or more).

1Operation

 

 

 

Set the sensor recording duration to 5 sec., 10 sec.,

 

15 sec., 30 sec., 60 sec., 120 sec., 180 sec., TAPE

 

END (to tape end) or MANUAL (for as long as alarm

 

signals are input).

 

* The sensor recording time will be shorter than the

 

specified value.

 

* When the sensor recording time is set to

 

“MANUAL”, the alarm cue signal (index code) will

 

not be recorded correctly if sensor input lasts for

 

less than 5 seconds.

 

* When sensor recording duration is set with an

 

external switcher, set the sensor recording duration

 

4to “MANUAL”.

 

TAPE END MODE

 

Selects whether or not the Stop mode is forcibly

 

engaged when the tape ends during sensor

 

recording.

 

• When set to “STOP”, the Stop mode is engaged at

 

tape end even if repeat recording or auto rewind is

 

set.

 

• When set to “OFF”, VCR operation is determined by

3

the repeat recording or auto rewind setting

 

Set the other menu switches.

 

5 Setting the alarm buzzer

 

Set the menu switch <AL/SENSOR IN> in

 

<BUZZER> to “ON” to sound the alarm buzzer during

 

sensor recording.

 

5 Setting the on-screen brightness and display items

 

Select the monitor display setting with the menu switch.

 

On-screen information is recorded together with the

 

video signals.

 

You can change the on-screen display position with the

 

• When an alarm signal is input to the rear panel’s

 

[ALARM IN] terminal, recording starts automatically in

 

the specified recording mode (2H or 6H) : U model,

 

(3H) : E model and the [AL] indication is lit. The

 

[ALARM] indication is shown on screen.

 

• After the specified recording duration expires,

 

recording stops.

 

* As sensor recording starts from the Stop mode, it

 

takes several seconds before actual recording

6

starts.

 

To stop sensor recording and clear the [ALARM]

 

indication, press the [RESET/CANCEL] button.

 

• In this case, even if the menu switch <TAPE END

 

MODE> is set to “STOP”, the operation executed at

 

end of the tape is determined by the setting of the

 

<AUTO REW> or <REPEAT REC> menu switch in the

7

<VTR MODE> menu.

 

To release the Sensor Record mode, set the <REC

 

MODE> menu switch in <ALARM/SENSOR MODE> to

 

“OFF” or “ALARM”.

*During playback, there may be some noise or picture distortion at the point where one sensor recording stops and another starts. This is not a malfunction.

*When a new alarm is input during sensor recording, sensor recording restarts from that point.

During recording, the input video signals can be checked on a monitor.

When the second and subsequent VCRs are turned on, input audio can be checked on the monitor in the 2H, 6H, L12H, L18H and L24H modes : U model, L12H and L24H modes : E model. During timelapse recording (except for the L12H, L18H and L24H modes : U model, 3H, L12H and L24H modes : E model), audio cannot be checked.

To activate series recording, set the <SRI/EXT REC> menu switch in <SRI/EXT MODE> to “SERIES”. (This setting should be done for all connected VCRs.)

recording. Select the counter end value from “500”,

 

“1000” ... “9500” with the <CNT TAPE END> menu switch.

 

• The tape reel counter value from the beginning of the

 

tape to the end is about 5800 on a T-120 : U model, E-

 

180 : E model cassette tape.

Notes:

If a cassette has not been loaded in any VCR in the series, series recording will stop when that VCR is reached.

If VCRs are connected in series as shown above, the second and subsequent VCRs will record the previous VCR’s on-screen information in addition to their own. To avoid this, use a distributor to distribute only video signals to each VCR.
