VIDEO CASSETTE TAPES
Correct tape thread check function
If the correct tape thread check function is on, after the
cassette tape is loaded, a mechanism will operate for
about 12 seconds to check that the tape has been
threaded (loaded) correctly and the cassette indicator ���o”
will blink during that period. If the tape is not loaded
properly, the cassette will be ejected.
NOTES:
•This function checks to make sure that the cassette has
been correctly loaded. It is recommended to use this
function to make sure the recordings are conducted
reliably.
•If during the tape thread check operation, the REC,
PLAY, FF, REW or STOP button is pressed, the
command will only be executed after the tape thread
has been checked. Only the EJECT button will operate
while the tape thread is being checked.
•If in the (SET UP 3) menu “TAPE IN MODE” is set to
“REC”, the recording indicator “a” will light during the
while the tape thread is checked. However, recording
will only start after the tape thread check is completed.
To cancel recording, press the STOP button.
