JVC HR-S2902U manual Child Lock,  Superimpose - On/Off,  Auto Spep Timer - On/Off

SUPERIMPOSE — ON/OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, various VCR status information (on-screen display) appears on the screen.

AUTO SP]EP TIMER — ON/OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, the VCR automatically switches to EP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to record the entire program while timer-recording in SP mode.

For Example, Recording a program of 140 minutes in length onto a 120-minute tape

Approximately 110 minutes	Approximately 30 minutes
SP mode	EP mode

NOTES:

●If you have programed the VCR to timer-record 2 or more programs, do not use this function, but change the tape speed manually during timer programing.

●There may be some noise and sound disturbance where the tape speed switches from SP to EP mode on the tape.

●This function is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and will not work properly on the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.

VIDEO STABILIZER — ON/OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, you can automatically correct vertical vibrations in the picture when playing back unstable recordings made on another VCR.

NOTE:

To watch recordings with close-caption or when you finish viewing a tape, set this function to “OFF”.

AUDIO MONITOR — HI-FI/HI-FI L/HI-FI R/NORM/MIX

This VCR can record two sound tracks simultaneously (normal and Hi-Fi) on a Hi-Fi stereo tape. You can select the sound track(s) to listen to while playing back a Hi-Fi stereo tape. In addition, when playing back a prerecorded tape containing two separate audio programs on the Hi-Fi tracks, you can choose either one by selecting either “HI-FI L” or “HI-FI R”.

HI-FI: Normally select this. Hi-Fi sound is played back.

HI-FI L: Sound on the left Hi-Fi channel is played back.

HI-FI R: Sound on the right Hi-Fi channel is played back.

NORM: Sound on the normal track is played back.

MIX: Both sounds on the Hi-Fi track and normal track are mixed and played back.

NOTES:

●While playing back a monaural tape, sounds on the normal track will be heard regardless of this setting.

●If RF connection ( pg. 5) is used for viewing pictures on the TV, sound will be monaural even though you select “HI-FI”.

●You can also use the A.MONITOR button on the Remote to select the desired monitor sound ( pg. 8).

S-VHS MODE — ON/OFF

You can determine which recording mode — either S-VHS mode or VHS mode — is used for recording on S-VHS tapes.

●When this function is set to “ON”, you can record on S-VHS tapes with S-VHS picture quality.

●When this function is set to “OFF”, you can record on S-VHS tapes with VHS picture quality.

NOTES:

●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 recommended 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. 11).

BLUE BACK — ON/OFF

When this function is set to “ON”, the TV screen becomes all blue when receiving a channel not in use.

NOTE:

When you want to receive an unstable channel with poor signals, set this function to “OFF”.

2ND AUDIO RECORD — ON/OFF

● When this function is set to “ON”;

If a SAP program is received, the SAP audio is recorded on both the normal and Hi-Fi tracks. The main audio is not recorded.

If a non-SAP program is received, the main audio is recorded on both the Hi-Fi and normal tracks.

● When this function is set to “OFF”, the SAP audio cannot be recorded.

NOTES:

When the channel is changed on the VCR;

●The “STEREO” indication appears on the screen for about 5 seconds if the program is a stereo broadcast.

●The “SAP” indication appears on the screen for about 5 seconds if the program is a SAP broadcast.

●Both indications appear when a stereo program is accompanied by SAP sound.

FRONT AUX INPUT — VIDEO/S-VIDEO
