Notes on timer recording

If you make a mistake when programming

The TIMER indication blinks and the Timer Record Standby mode is engaged.

The blinking of the TIMER indication differs depending on the programming status.

When correct programs exist, the indication blinks for about 10 seconds and then lights.

If mistakes are detected in all programs, the indication blinks for about 10 seconds.

Incorrect programs are canceled automatically. So, if necessary, program the timer again.

If no programs have been set

The TIMER indication blinks for about 10 seconds. The Timer Record Standby mode cannot be engaged.

Program the timer.

If program data overlaps

The Timer Record Standby mode is engaged and the OVER LAP indication blinks for about 10 seconds.

The OVER LAP indication is not shown, however, if the DAILY timer program and WEEKLY timer program overlap.

Check the program contents.

When program data overlaps, the timer recording priority is determined as follows.

1 The daily timer has priority over the weekly timer. 2 The program with shorter recording time

(6H>L18H>L30H>48H>72H>96H>120H>168H>240H) has priority.

3 The program which starts earlier has priority.

4 When the start time is the same, the program with the lower program No. has priority.

During timer recording

The PAUSE/STILL button has no effect.

To operate the VCR, first press the [TIMER REC] button.

Timer recording

When the <TAPE END MODE> function menu switch is

set to STOP, REW or EJECT and the tape ends during timer recording.

The cassette is ejected.
