INTERFACE
1Connect an IEEE 1394 cable to IEEE 1394
INTERFACE on the playback VCR and to IEEE
1394 INTERFACE on the HS-HD2000U. You can
use either of the two IEEE 1394 INTERFACE
terminals.
IMPORTANT
Do not pull out an IEEE 1394 cable during
copying the tape.
You cannot copy a tape in D-VHS format from
digital video equipment (for example, digital
video camera) even if it is connected with an
IEEE 1394 cable.
2Set the recording VCR to be able to control the
playback VCR.
To do this, when you use HS-HD2000U as a
recording VCR, press IEEE 1394 INPUT on the
remote control to display d1 to d5 on the front panel
which will correspond to the D-VHS VCR used as a
playback VCR. If you use this VCR as a playback
VCR and the other VCR as a recording VCR, refer
to the recording VCR owner’s guide for this
procedure.
3Put a D-VHS tape with the erasure prevention tab
intact to the recording VCR.
4When you are using the HS-HD2000U as a
recording VCR, make sure that the D-VHS button on
the front panel is lit. If it is not, press the button to
light it up.
5Put the tape you want to copy into the playback VCR
and find the cue point. Press STOP if the picture
starts playing.
IMPORTANT
As it will take a few seconds to automatically
select the recording mode, stop the tape slightly
before the point you want to start copying.
6On the playback VCR, press PLAY, then PAUSE.
7On the recording VCR, press REC, then PAUSE.
8Press the PAUSE buttons on both VCRs at the same
time to begin copying the tape.
9When finished, press STOP on both VCRs.
IMPORTANT
The programs prohibited from copying or the
programs with copy restriction cannot be copied
correctly. When you use the HS-HD2000U as a
recording VCR and copy such programs, Error
CP appears on the front panel display.

Copying a Tape from D-VHS to D-VHS

When you connect a D-VHS VCR equipped with IEEE 1394 INTERFACE terminal to the HS-HD2000U with an IEEE
1394 cable, you can copy a tape from D-VHS format to D-VHS. You cannot edit the tape while copying from D-VHS to
D-VHS.
