OTHER USEFUL FUNCTIONS (cont.)

 

* The default setting is bold in the table below.

 

 

 S-VHS MODEYou can determine which recording mode — either S-VHS mode or VHS mode — is

ON

used for recording on D-VHS and S-VHS tapes.
When this function is set to “ON”, you can record on D-VHS and S-VHS tapes with

OFF

S-VHS picture quality.

 

 

When this function is set to “OFF”, you can record on D-VHS and

 

S-VHS tapes with VHS picture quality.

 

NOTES:

 

To record in S-VHS/VHS mode on D-VHS tape, press D-VHS to turn off the D-VHS indicator.

 

S-VHS mode allows you to make high quality video recordings with horizontal resolution of 400

 

lines, comparing with the 230 lines of resolution of conventional VHS recordings. To achieve the

 

highest quality picture we recommend to record in S-VHS mode. (But remember that a

 

conventional VHS VCR without SQPB cannot play back S-VHS tapes recorded in S-VHS mode.)

 

S-VHS MODE setting does not affect recording on VHS tapes. Recording on VHS tapes is always

 

performed in VHS mode except when using S-VHS ET mode ( pg. 59).

 

 

 AV COMPU-LINKThe REMOTE PAUSE/AV COMPULINK terminal on the rear panel can be used as either

ON

the REMOTE PAUSE terminal or the AV COMPULINK terminal.

 

OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, you can use this terminal as the AV COMPULINK

 

terminal.

 

By connecting other JVC’s AV COMPULINK components (see the diagram below),

 

including amplifiers (or receivers) and televisions, one touch control of the audio and

 

video components linked via their AV COMPULINK connectors becomes possible.

 

For example: simply load a cassette in the VCR and press PLAY ( 3 ) so that the AV COMPULINK

 

components automatically turn on, the TV’s AV mode is selected and the VCR starts playback. (You

 

do not have to press PLAY ( 3 ) if the cassette’s record safety tab is removed.)

 

When this function is set to “OFF”, you can use this terminal as the REMOTE PAUSE

 

terminal ( pg. 67).

NOTES:

When the remote control code is set to “C” or “D”, the connector cannot be used as AV COMPULINK terminal even if “AV COMPU-LINK” is set to “ON”. It is recommended to set the remote control code to “A” when you use this function. ( pg. 71).

Connection varies depending on the type of JVC TV you have. Refer to the TV’s instruction manual when making this connection.
