Description
Transfers the VTR to the HOME SET UP menu screen.
This is used during insert editing in the AUTO or MANUAL EDIT
mode when the already recorded digital signals are to be read in
advance and used as the editing source. To set the item to ON,
press the F together with the F11 or F12 key. To set it to OFF,
press the F11 or F12 key on its own. When ON is selected as
the setting, refer to the section on pre-read editing (next page).
ON: The digital signals are read in advance (pre-read).
OFF: The digital signals are not read in advance (pre-read).
Simultaneous playback is possible during editing.
≥If OFF is selected by the F11 or F12 key, vibration may occur
when EE has been selected on the STATE screen. (This
happens only when the input and output of the same channel
have been connected.)
≥If ON has been set for either of these items, the up-converter
picture will be muted.
FREE: Enables recording.
NRML.REC: Prohibits normal recording; enables editing. (The
REC INHIBIT lamp blinks at long intervals.)
ALL: Prohibits all recording. (REC INHIBIT lamp
glows.)
≥The CASSETTE REC INHIBIT mode which is set using the
recording inhibit pins on the cassette tape takes precedence
over this key’s setting.
°The above functions can be set only when the 480/59.94i system format is selected.
