ALARM RECORDING

This VCR can automatically record at one of 8 speeds (09~240) on ALARM command.

There are two alarm inputs to ALARM (A) IN and ALARM B IN for which the recording conditions are different.

To program the ALARM function refer to page 19. The remote/contact switch must be connected to the VCR. See page 10.

To operate the ALARM recording in the stop mode: follow the tape recording procedure, step 1, then select “YES” of the ALARM READY menu in the ALARM display.

Note: An alarm input to ALARM (A) IN has priority. When an alarm is input to ALARM (A) IN when an alarm is being input to ALARM B IN the input at ALARM (A) IN is recorded. If an alarm is input to ALARM B IN when an alarm input to ALARM (A) IN is being recorded, the alarm at ALARM (A) IN continues. If the alarm at ALARM B IN continues after recording the alarm at ALARM (A) IN has ended, the alarm at ALARM B IN will be recorded.

MASTER SYSTEM RESET

Press the two reset buttons simultaneously to pro- vide a MASTER SYSTEM RESET. Use to reset abnormal displays and operations. The program- mable features must be re-programmed.

PLAYBACK

1.Rewind the tape to the desired beginning point. (Press the REWIND button, and observe the digi- tal counter until the desired number appears.) Press the stop button.

2.Press the REC/PLAY HOURS button until the desired tape speed is observed on the tape speed indicator.

3.Press the PLAY button to initiate forward play- back.

To select reverse playback, press the PLAY but- ton and then press the REVERSE PLAY button. Forward playback resumes when the PLAY but- ton is pressed.

Notes:

When the REVERSE PLAY button is pressed in the forward playback mode to set the VCR to the reverse playback mode, the first several frame images may be distorted.

When the REVERSE PLAY button is pressed during playback at the 27 or 48 hour speed, reverse play is performed automatically at the 72 hour speed.

The VCR will automatically enter the STOP mode if the reverse play is continued for approx. 1 minute.

4.Press the STOP button to stop playback.

Notes:

The tape speed mode can be changed during playback.

When a picture recorded in the 09 mode is played back in the 27 mode, it includes noise. It is recommended that you play back pictures re- corded in the 09 mode at modes higher than 48.

When the tape reaches the end, the unit auto- matically rewinds to the beginning of the tape and then goes to the STOP mode.

If the monitor display exhibits distortion in the upper part of the picture, adjust the horizontal hold control on the monitor.

Adjust the SLOW TRACKING control to minimize noise when playing back at slow speed (more than 48 Hr).

The playback picture is not stable and has some noise at 27 mode. And in these modes TRACK- ING control is not effective.

STILL PLAYBACK

When the STILL button is pressed during playback, a still picture can be seen. To start again press STILL or PLAY button and the VCR will continue playback.

Notes:

When still playback continues for more than 5 minutes, the AUTO-PROTECT circuit operates and the VCR will enter the STOP mode automatically.

If the picture shakes up and down during still playback, adjust the V.LOCK control.

V.LOCK ADJUST

If the picture shakes up and down during still play- back, adjust the picture by the following procedure.

1.Play back a tape, recorded in the 09 mode, in the still playback mode.

With some monitors, if the V.LOCK control is adjusted when playing a tape recorded in modes other than 09, shaking of the still pic- ture may not stop.

2.Adjust the V.LOCK control so the shaking of the picture stops.

Note: Shaking of the picture may not be stopped completely depending on the monitor used.
