Output a series recording signal from the [SERIES/ CLOCK OUT] terminal to start recording. Set the signal output timing with <REC REMAIN> or <COUNT END>. For details, refer to "Contents of the Function Menu Switches" on page 21.

2To end function setting, press the MENU button to close the menu display and restore the time/date display.

3Load cassettes with safety tab in place in all connected VCRs.

4Engage the Record mode on the first VCR. Turn on all connected VCRs and put them in the Standby mode. This allows you to check picture and sound on the monitor.

When the recording is complete on the first VCR, the second VCR automatically starts recording. This is repeated for all connected VCRs.

Note

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