Preparation on the recorder (the unit)
Notes
•Before recording, set the date and time on the unit so that the recording time can be written into the search signal. You can set the date and time by setting [CLOCK SET] in [OTHERS] menu. (page 78)
•Editing may not be possible with a signal that is copyright protected.
•During recording, the tape transport control buttons (except STOP and PAUSE) are disabled to prevent the tape running mode from being changed by an incorrect operation. To disable STOP and PAUSE buttons, set KEY INH switch to ON after the unit starts recording. In this case, set KEY INH switch to OFF first, then stop or pause the recording.
1 Turn the power on the monitor, then set the monitor’s input according to the input signals.
2 Set up the player to play back a tape.
For details, refer to the instruction manual of the player.
3 Turn the unit on.
4 When the player is connected to IN jacks on the unit, set [60i/50i SEL] in [OTHERS] menu according to the input signals.
When you input 60i system signals, set [60i/50i SEL] to [60i]. When you input 50i system signals, set [60i/50i SEL] to [50i]. (page 79)
Notes
•Do not change [60i/50i SEL] setting during recording.
•When you select S VIDEO or VIDEO with INPUT SELECT switch, if the field frequency of the input signals is different from that of [60i/50i SEL] setting, the picture mutes.
