INDEX SEARCH

This feature provides a method of indexing the start- ing point so that it can be easily returned to in either fast forward or rewind mode.

The index mark will be made automatically when the REC button is pressed. It will also be marked at the starting point of Timer recording and OTR.

The index mark will not be recorded if the PAUSE button is pressed and released during recording.

The time gap between making the index marks on the tape should be greater than 1 minute for SP recording, 2 minutes for LP recording and 3 min- utes for SLP recording.

In some cases, the index mark at the beginning of video tape cannot be detected.

Example: You are watching program number 4 and want to fast forward to program number 7. You must skip three programs.
