CHAPTER 5 - PLAYBACK FEATURES 25

Sequential & Loop Play

Two decks give you twice the playback features of a normal

VCR. Sequential Play allows you to insert tapes in both

decks and play one after another. Loop Play allows you to

play both tapes in a continuous loop.

To activate Sequential or Loop Play:

1Insert tapes in both decks.

2Press

MENU

until the DUAL-DECK FEATURES menu

appears.

3Press “4” repeatedly to set PLAYBACK MODE to:

Norm - Tapes play normally.

Seq - (Sequential) Deck 1 plays to the end of the tape, then

Deck 2 plays to the end of the tape. If Auto Rewind is

set to on, both tapes will rewind automatically when

playback is finished.

Loop - Deck 1 plays to the end of the tape, then Deck 2

begins playing. While Deck 2 is playing, Deck 1

automatically rewinds to the beginning. When

playback is finished in Deck 2, Deck 1 plays again

and the process repeats in a continuous loop until

you press the

STOP

key. Rewinding is automatic

regardless of the Auto Rewind setting.

Automatic Tracking

Your Dual-Deck VCR is equipped with an Automatic Digital

Tracking System which is activated whenever you insert a

tape to play. While tracking is adjusted, you’ll see ATR

(Automatic Tracking) flash on the On-Screen Display.

If you need to adjust tracking manually:

1Press the TRACKING & keys to move the

white streaks up or down and out of the picture. This

disables the ATR System.

2To reactivate ATR, press the

ATR

key on the remote

control.

Set two tapes to play sequentially

or in a continuous loop.

What is Tracking?

Tracking adjusts the VCR’s heads

to fine tune playback. Your Dual-Deck

VCR has both automatic and manual

tracking.
