Auto SPLP Timer

If, when timer-recording in SP mode, there is not enough tape to record the entire programme, the recorder automatically switches to LP mode to allow complete recording.

NOTES:

The Auto SPLP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly with any tapes longer than E-180 or with some tapes of shorter lengths.

If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or more

programmes, the second programme and those thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set "AUTO SPLP TIMER" to "ON". In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer programming.

In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may leave a short non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

There may be some picture noise and sound disturbance at the point on the tape where the recorder switches from SP to LP mode.

If you perform timer recording with both PDC and the Auto SPLP Timer activated, and the programme goes beyond its originally scheduled length, there may be times when the programme cannot be recorded in its entirety.

NTSC Playback

Your video recorder is equipped with NTSC circuitry that can play back NTSC tapes.

LOAD A CASSETTE

1 Insert a cassette recorded in NTSC.

START PLAYBACK

2 Press PLAY.

"NTSCPAL" appears on the screen for about 5 seconds.

Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or the TV.

The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)

The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.

During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.

Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
