Remaining battery charge display
If a battery with a digital display (% display) is used, all 7 segments up to the “F” position light when the 70% or more of the battery charge remains.
When there is less than 70% of the battery charge remaining, the segments go out one by one in sequence every time the remaining charge drops by 10%. It is also possible to set all 7 segments to light at a 100% battery charge by selecting 100% as the setting for BATT REMAIN FULL on the <BATTERY/TAPE> screen of the VTR menu.
Audio channel level meter
When the MONITOR SELECT CH1/2OCH3/4 switch is set to CH1/2, numbers 1 and 2 indicating the audio channels appear, and the CH1 and CH2 audio levels are displayed. Conversely, when it is set to CH3/4, numbers 3 and 4 indicating the audio channels appear, and the CH3 and CH4 audio levels are displayed.
