An index mark is written on a tape at each hour (1:00, 2:00 and so on) during recording. The time date search cannot be

resumed if the index mark of the hour (set in step 3) is not recorded on a tape.

Example: When the VCR recorded from 8:15 to 17:30 on a tape, only pictures recorded between 9:00 and 17:30 can be found using the time date search.

The time date search may not function correctly, if you use a tape with a poor recording quality or with alarm recordings recorded at several recording mode.

The time date search will not function when using a tape recorded with other VCRs or a tape recorded without setting the current day and time.

Info.

When the desired part of the tape is not found in the selected direction, the VCR automatically searches in the opposite direction.
