Changing display information
Press DISPLAY during playback.
Each time you press the button, the front display panel
shows the time counter, tape remaining time and the
clock time in sequence.
To display the VCR status including the time counter
and the clock time on the TV screen, see “Showing on-
screen display” ( pg. 27).
“COUNT” appears on the screen when the time
counter is shown. “REMAIN” appears on the screen
when the tape remaining time is shown.
The approximate tape remaining time appears and the
indicator lights on the front display panel.
The tape remaining time is calculated based on the
tape speed (SP or EP) being used. The indicated
remaining time is only an estimate.
To reset the time counter, press C. RESET on the
Remote. The counter reading becomes “0:00:00”. It is
also reset when a tape is inserted.
Checking tape position
The tape position indicator
appears on screen in the
following cases:
When you change the VCR
operation mode from the
stop mode to fast forward or
rewind mode.
When you perform an Index
Search ( pg. 23) or Instant Review ( pg. 24).
The position of “ ” in relation to “B” (Beginning) or “E”
(End) shows you where you are on the tape.
NOTES:
“SUPERIMPOSE” must be set to “ON”, or the indicator will
not appear (
pg. 38, 39).
It may take a few seconds for the tape position indicator to be
displayed.
