Notes

•The unit cannot detect signals for Index signal, a signal other than the one set by [AUTO] in [HDV/DV SEL], or an unrecorded portion within 20 seconds of the beginning of the playback.

•When you intend to turn the unit off, press STOP button on the unit to stop the tape transport operation beforehand. If you turn the unit off while a tape is running, for example, by using an AC timer, the unit or the tape may be damaged.

•The editing software used on the digital non-linear editing system may mark index signals on a tape itself. Therefore, if you use a tape on which signals transmitted from a digital non-linear editing controller are recorded or a copy tape made from one, using digital dubbing, Auto Repeat may not be performed correctly.
