USING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT (cont.)

 

Random Assemble Editing [R.A.Edit]

Create edited videos easily using your camcorder as

the source player. You can select up to 8 “cuts” for

VCR (Recording deck)automatic editing, in any order you like. R.A.Edit is more easily performed when the MBR (Multi-Brand Remote) is set to operate with your brand of VCR (see VCR CODE LIST), but can also be performed by operating the VCR manually.

Before operation, make sure the batteries are installed in the remote control ( pg. 48).

IMPORTANT

Although the MBR is compatible with JVC VCRs and those of many other makers, it may not work with yours or may offer limited functions.

NOTES:

If the VCR’s power does not come on in step 1, try another code from the VCR CODE LIST.

Some brands of VCR do not come on automati- cally. In this case, turn the power on manually and try step 2.

If the remote control is not able to control the VCR, use the controls on the VCR.

When the remote control’s batteries run out, the VCR brand you have set will be erased.

In that case, replace the old battery with a new one to reset the VCR brand.
