COPY

This Chapter will show you how to copy tapes with your Dual-Deck VCR.

To set up the Commercial Free Copy feature, please see Chapter 9.

BASIC COPYING

NOTES
The Dual-Deck VCR cannot duplicate copy-protected tapes. If you try to copy a protected tape, the
message “Tape is Copy Protected” will appear on the on-screen display.
If you want to copy an entire tape, try the EZ Copy feature. The VCR will automatically rewind both tapes
before and after copying and eject both tapes when finished; see page 11.

Follow these steps to copy a tape from

Deck 1 to Deck 2.

1 INSERT SOURCE TAPE
Insert the tape you want to copy in Deck 1.
2 INSERT TARGET TAPE
Insert the tape you want to copy to in Deck 2.
Make sure the tape has a
record safety tab or it will eject
when you press COPY TAPE.
3 COPY YOUR TAPE
Press COPY TAPE.
The “Copy” indicator will light on the front
panel display and the VCR will begin copy-
ing from Deck 1 to Deck 2.
4 OPTIONS WHILE COPYING
To pause, press COPY TAPE. The “Copy”
indicator will blink on the front panel display.
While paused you can reposition the source
tape in Deck 1; e.g., to fast-forward over a
commercial; see page 24.
To resume copying, press COPY TAPE again.
To stop copying, select Deck 2, then press
STOP .
