Tape Remaining Time B.E.S.T. Picture System

1 Press DISPLAY until the time remaining on the tape appears.

●By pressing the DISPLAY button, you can change display to show the clock time, counter reading or tape remaining time.

NOTE:

Depending on the type of tape being used, the tape remaining time reading may not appear right away, or is not correct.

“– –:– –” may sometimes appear, or the display may blink on occasion.

Receiving Stereo And Bilingual Programmes

Your unit is equipped with a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible. When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.

Type of Broadcast Being	On-screen Display
Received
Regular Monaural	(none)
NICAM Stereo	ST NICAM
NICAM Bilingual	BIL. NICAM
NICAM Monaural	NICAM

●To listen to a stereo programme, press AUDIO until “HI FI L j h R” appears on the TV screen.

●To listen to a bilingual programme, press AUDIO until “HI FI L j” or “HI FI h R” appears on the TV screen.

●To listen to the standard (Regular Monaural) audio while receiving a NICAM broadcast, press AUDIO until “NORM” appears on the TV screen.

NOTE:

“SUPERIMPOSE” must be set to “ON”, or the on-screen displays will not appear. ( pg. 79)

To Record Stereo and Bilingual Programmes (A2)

Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo on the Hi-Fi audio track (with the normal audio track recording mixed L and R channel sound).

●Bilingual programmes are automatically recorded in bilingual on the Hi-Fi audio track. The main soundtrack will be recorded on the normal audio track.

To Record NICAM Stereo and Bilingual Programmes

The NICAM audio programme will be recorded on the Hi-Fi audio track, and the standard audio programme will be recorded on the normal audio track.

NOTES:

●If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.

●Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a bilingual programme, refer to “Soundtrack Selection” on page 60.

The B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking) system checks the condition of the tape in use during playback and recording, and compensates to provide the highest-possible playback and recording pictures. You can set “B.E.S.T.” to “ON” or “OFF” to your preference. ( pg. 81)

Playback

The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate playback.

●The unit adjusts the playback picture quality based on the quality of the tape in use.

●B.E.S.T. is active during automatic tracking. “BEST” appears blinking on the front display panel.

●“BEST” only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking. Even though it doesn’t appear after that, the B.E.S.T. function is operative.

Recording

The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate recording.

●The unit spends approximately 7 seconds assessing the condition of the tape, then begins recording.

ATTENTION:

Since the B.E.S.T. system works before recording actually starts, there is a delay of approximately 7 seconds after 7 and 4 on the remote control are pressed, or 7 on the unit is pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or programme in its entirety, first perform the following steps:

APress and hold 9 and press 7 to engage the Record Pause mode.

● The unit then automatically checks the condition of the tape and, after approximately 7 seconds, re-enters Record Pause mode.

B Press 4 to start recording.

If you want to bypass the B.E.S.T. system and begin recording immediately, set “B.E.S.T.” to “OFF”. ( pg. 81)
