OFF

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

EP mode

 

 

Total 140

minutes

 

 

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

NOTES:

If you have programed the unit to timer-record 2 or more programs, the second program and those thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set “AUTO SP]EP TIMER” to “ON”. In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer programing.

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 unit switches from SP to EP mode.

The Auto SP]EP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly on the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120
