VCP protection circuits

Tape protection circuit

•When the system is in PAUSE mode, the tape mechanism will continue to create tension on the tape.

•When the VCP is in still playback, FFWD (fast forward) or REW (reverse) mode for more than five minutes, the tape protection circuit automatically returns the system to PLAY mode to avoid damage to the tape.

Your AutoVision System is also equipped with a Dew sensor circuit and a High/low temperature sensor circuit. For more information on these circuits, please refer to Humidity and moisture condensation and Temperature extremes in this chapter.
