Tape Types and Length

Any type of tape (Normal, High, or Metal) can be used with the PMD520. High or Metal tapes have superior performance com- pared to Normal Tapes. The PMD520 can sense which kind of tape is being used, and will automatically adjust bias, EQ, etc. C-60 or C-90 length tapes are recommended, as C-120 tapes are often too thin, and can become entangled in the transport mechanism.

Remote Operation

The period ( 0 0 . 0 0 ) of the time display will flash depending on which Well is being addressed by a conected remote con- trol.
