* The default setting is bold in the table below.

 

 

 

 

 

8 AUTO SP]LP TIMER

 

When this function is set to “ON”, the recorder automatically switches to LP

ON

 

mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to record the

OFF

 

entire programme while timer-recording in SP mode.

 

 

For Example . . .

 

 

 

 

Recording a programme of 210 minutes in length onto a 180-minute tape

minutes

 

 

 

Make sure you set this function to “ON”, before the timer-recording starts.

 

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

SP]LP 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 slight

 

 

non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

 

 

There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the tape where the

 

 

recorder switches from SP to LP mode.

 

 

The Auto SP]LP 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 perform timer recording with both VPS/PDC and the Auto SP]LP Timer

 

 

activated, and the programme goes beyond its originally scheduled length, there

 

 

may be times when the programme cannot be recorded in its entirety.

 

 

 

 

 

8 DIGITAL 3R

 

When this function is set to “ON”, the Digital 3R picture system applies edge

ON

 

correction to the luminance signal to enhance detail.

OFF

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Normally it is recommended to keep “DIGITAL 3R” set to “ON”.

 

 

Depending on the type of tape being used, picture quality may be better with

 

 

“DIGITAL 3R” set to “OFF”.

 

 

 

 

If you use the recorder as the source player for editing, be sure to set “DIGITAL 3R”

 

 

to “OFF” before starting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8 POWER SAVE

 

When this function is set to “ON”, you can reduce the power consumption

8 VIDEO STABILIZER

 

When this function is set to “ON”, you can automatically correct vertical

vibration in the picture when playing back unstable recordings made on

OFF

 

another recorder.

 

 

 

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

When you finish viewing a tape, be sure to set this function to “OFF”.

 

 

Regardless of the setting, this function has no effect during recording and during

 

 

special effects playback.

 

 

 

 

The on-screen display may jitter vertically when this function is set to “ON”.

 

 

To watch recordings with close-caption, set this function to “OFF”.

 

 

Video Stabilizer and Digital TBC/NR cannot be used at the same time. If you activate

 

 

Digital TBC/NR when “VIDEO STABILIZER” is set to “ON”, Video Stabilizer will be

 

 

automatically turned “OFF”.
