On Screen Menu System

Note:

When you first set up your Dual-Deck VCR, pressing MENU will summon the SET CLOCK MENU, and then the SETUP MENU, because you will need to set the clock, the antenna input, and the channel memory before you can use many of the features of your Dual-Deck VCR.

The On Screen Menu System allows you to easily set up your 8mm/VHS Dual-Deck VCR to make recordings (includ- ing timer recordings), and to copy tapes. You will also use the On Screen Menu System to set the antenna, channel memory, the clock, and change any automatic features.

Many of the menu items come pre-programmed to the most common, or simplest, setting. You may never need to change some settings in some menus. As you learn more about your Dual-Deck VCR, you may decide to change some settings, in the Auto Features Menu for example.

To use the 8mm/VHS Dual-Deck VCR’s On Screen Menu System, press MENU on the remote control. One of four main menus will appear: TIMER RECORD MENU, SETUP MENU, VHS MENU, or AMERICHROME COPY MENU. As you press MENU over and over, you will cycle through these four main menus. Try it!

We’ve designed the menu system for the 8mm/VHS Dual- Deck VCR to do your thinking for you. When you press MENU , the menu that appears will depend on what your current TV View is. If your current TV View is the VHS deck, pressing MENU will summon the VHS menu. If your current TV View is the 8mm deck, the Tuner (television or cable), or Line 1 or 2 input, pressing MENU will summon the Timer Record menu.

You will use the following keys while in the On Screen Menu System. These keys are outlined in grey on the bottom half of the remote control.
