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.

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 ownerÕs 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.
