Cassette Tapes

It is recommended that you use standard grade VHS video tapes of the following makers:

Maxell TDK Fuji

TAPE LIFE

Slower speed operation in time lapse recording applies stress to video tape. Tapes should be inspected and, if necessary, discarded after the total number of complete tape passes (recording and playback) exceeds the following limits:

Tape Speed	Complete Tape Passes
08, 24, 40	25

INSERTING A CASSETTE

Note: This is the first step in all VCR operations. The VCR will not operate without a cassette in place. To insert a cassette push the cassette through the cassette compartment door until the VCR mech- anism pulls it into the compartment.

The tape-in indicator turns on.

REMOVING A CASSETTE

Before removing a cassette: rewind the tape com- pletely.

To remove a cassette, press the EJECT button. The cassette will come partially out of the compartment so you can pull it out.

Important

“Avoid using cassette box fabricated out of transparent material.”

This is to prevent occurrence of any incorrect operation due to sensor's misdetection.

VIDEO CASSETTE SAFETY TAB

To prevent accidental erasure of recorded material, remove the safety tab from the lower left corner of the cassette.

Recording is impossible when the safety tab is removed.

Notes:

•The TAB indicator lights when a cassette without its safety tab is loaded.

•To record again on a cassette that has its safety tab removed, cover the tab hole with tape. In the TIMER mode, the TIMER indicator will flash on and off if the cassette is inserted without its safety tab slot covered or intact.

TAPE LENGTH

The total recording time at each of the three tape speeds depends on the length of the tape used. The table below shows:

1.The total recording time that can be recorded at each tape speed mode on T120 and T160 tapes.

2.The pictures per second at each speed.

3.The speeds at which audio can also be recorded.

Use the table to select the tape length which gives the best compromise between tape cost, total recording time, and elapsed time between pictures.

Tape Speed Mode		08	24	40
Total	T120	6	18	30
