NOTE: Do not use a T-160/ST-160 tape when recording in 48H – 168H modes. T-160/ST-160 tape in lengthy time-lapse recording can stretch, resulting in poor playback or no playback.

8.1.2 Record Check Function

When the VCR is recording, press the PLAY button for more than 1.5 seconds and then release. The tape rewinds a little and then plays back the recording just made. When the tape reaches the spot where you pressed the PLAY button, the VCR returns to record mode.

8.1.3 Audio Recording

Either apply the specified line input signal to the AUDIO IN connector or connect the microphone to the MIC IN jack. If both are connected, the microphone is given priority.

Normal sound is played back only when a tape recorded in 2H, 6H, L18H, or L24H mode is played back in its respective mode.

The longer the recording time mode, the worse the sound quality becomes. In L18H and L24H modes, the sound quality is such that speech can be heard.

8.1.4 Repeat Recording

NOTE: On ALARM•PROT mode, a tape with alarm recordings can be used for repeat recording by ejecting and re-inserting the tape.

When TAPE END on the First Time Set Up menu is set to REPEAT or ALARM•PROT and the repeat recording mode is set (the REPEAT indicator is lit), the tape will automatically rewind to the start when the end of the tape is reached. Recording will begin again.

Table D shows what automatically happens when the tape ends during recording:
