Instant Timer Recording (ITR)

This easy method lets you record for from 30 minutes to 6 hours (selectable in 30-min. increments), and shuts the recorder off after recording is finished.

1Start recording.

Press 7 on the recorder.

2Engage the ITR mode.

Press 7 again. “7” blinks and “0:30” appears on the front display panel.

3Set the recording duration.

If you want to record for more than 30 minutes, press 7 to extend the time. Each press extends recording time by 30 minutes.

NOTES:

●You can only perform ITR using the 7 button on the recorder’s front panel.

●When the end of the tape is reached during instant timer recording, the cassette is ejected, then the recorder is powered off automatically.
