DVD Multitrack Recorder DV824

Realtime clock setting

The realtime clock is built in the DV824.

The realtime clock data is used for date/time of creation of a file.

By default, the realtime clock is set according to local date/time of the factory. There- fore, set the clock correctly according to your local date/time before using.

<Note>: You can record the realtime clock data as the TC start time time only when the optional TC/SYNC card is installed and the "Gen Mode" item (for TC recording mode set- ting) of the "TC SETUP" menu in the MENU mode is set to "24H Run" (see page 128 for details).

1)After turning on the power of the unit, press the [ENTER/YES] key to enter

the MENU mode.

The display now shows the MENU list screen on which "SYS SETUP" is high- lighted.

2) Press the [ENTER/YES] key again.

The display now shows the "SYS SETUP" menu.

4) Press the [ENTER/YES] key again.

the [SKIP/CURSOR ] keys.

<Note>: We recommend entering a time shortly ahead of "now" (such as one minute ahead) in step 5 above and pressing the [ENTER] key (in step 6 above) at the moment when the current time reaches the entered time.

7)Press the [STOP/HOME] key to exit the MENU mode.

<Note>: The unit has an internal lithium battery which is used for driving the realtime clock.

The battery life is approximately five years. The battery replacement is done by local Fostex distributor's service department or their autho- rized service agent.
