If “OUTPUT” is set to “NON REC”, please continue with step 4.

4Press the ] button.

5Press the l (or j) button to select the desired output.

ACTIVE LOW . . Normally DC 5V are output between the SERIES OUT/NON REC OUT and the COM terminals. If during recording the VCR enters a mode other than recording (i.e. recording pause, stop mode, etc.), the output become 0 V (Low). If recording is resumed, then the output become 5 V (High).

ACTIVE HIGH . . Normally 0V are output between the SERIES OUT/NON REC OUT and the COM terminals. If during recording the VCR enters a mode other than recording (i.e. recording pause, stop mode, etc.), the output become 5 V (High). If recording is resumed, then the output become 0 V (Low).

NOTES:

If “NON REC OUT” is set to “ACTIVE HIGH”, a throwaway pulse will be output from the SERIES OUT/NON REC OUT terminal when power is restored after an outage, when the power is turned on or when the ALL RESET button is pressed. This will continue until the microprocessor starts operating. If this output terminal is connected to some other device, the device should be set or adjusted so that it is not affected by the throwaway pulse. If set to “ACTIVE LOW”, this kind of pulse is not output, and so it is recommended that you use the “ACTIVE LOW” setting.

If in the (SET UP 2) menu, in the “BUZZER” section, “WARNING” is set to “Y”, a buzzer will be heard while the VCR is in non recording mode. The buzzer will stop if the STOP button is pressed (the output signal will remain).
