=LOCAL/MENU/REMOTE switch

This is set when performing menu settings or controlling the VTR from an external device.

LOCAL : When the VTR is to be controlled using the controls on its operation panel.

MENU : When on-screen menu items are to be set.

REMOTE: When VTR is to be controlled using an external remote controller (AJ-A95).

>ANALOG lamp

This lights when “ANALOG” has been selected as the setup menu item No.700 setting for the audio input signals.

<Note>

When analog signals are input, they are recorded on the tape’s audio tracks listed below depending on the channel to which they are input.

CH1 input 5 CH1 and CH5 tracks CH2 input 5 CH2 and CH6 tracks CH3 input 5 CH3 and CH7 tracks CH4 input 5 CH4 and CH8 tracks

?METER button and lamp (CH3•4)

Each time the METER button is pressed, what is displayed on the level meter is switched from the CH1/CH2 levels to the CH3/CH4 levels or vice versa.

The CH3•4 lamp goes off when the CH1/CH2 levels are displayed.

<Note>

The METER button works when “LINE” has been selected as the setup menu item No.780 setting for the analog audio output connectors.

@Audio output lamps (CH1•2, CH3•4)

These lamps are used to indicate the audio channels whose signals are being output.
