On Screen Display

with Source

The On Screen Display contains information about the status (e.g. Play, Stop, Rewind) of each deck, the Record Source for the VHS deck, the TV View (what you are seeing on the TV screen), and the date and time.

The On Screen Display appears on your screen automati- cally when you turn the power on, when you press a deck function key (such as Play, Rewind, etc.), and when you change channels or select a TV View source. This automatic On Screen Display will disappear after a few seconds.

You also can see the On Screen Display by pressing the DISPLAY key on the remote control. If you do this, the On Screen Display will remain on the screen until you press DISPLAY again. The On Screen Display will toggle back and forth between the Time/Date and the Source screens. Press DISPLAY once to turn on the On Screen Display with Date and Time, a second time to turn this display off, and a third time to turn on the On Screen Display with Source.

If you don’t want the On-Screen Display to come on auto- matically, you can set the DISPLAY MODE in the DISPLAY MENU (in the AMERICHROME COPY MENU) to OFF. You can also set the DISPLAY MODE to TAPE if you don’t want to see the TV VIEW and CH information, or to TUNER if you don’t want to see the Deck Status information.

The On Screen Display has five basic parts:

Date/Time

This indicator displays the current Date and

 

Time. The Date/Time display alternates with

 

the Source display.

SOURCE

For the VHS deck, the Source indicator shows

 

the Source for recording onto a VHS tape (you

 

could record from an 8mm tape, from a TV

 

channel, or from Line 1 or Line 2). In other

 

words, if TV View is set to VHS, but no VHS

 

tape is playing, and the Source for the VHS

 

deck is the Tuner, then you will see the

 

Tuner on your TV screen. The Source display

 

alternates with the Date/Time display.
