4-1 Registering and Storing Menu Settings

The operating conditions of the VTR are set by the menu operation section on the lower control panel. Menu items are divided among six different menus (HOME, TC, CUE, PF1, PF2, SET UP).

Of these menus, the PF1/PF2 (Personal Function) menus can be used to register frequently used menu items from the other menus, allowing faster setting of VTR operating conditions. Eight VTR memory banks are provided for storing up to eight sets of menu settings. The contents of the eight VTR memory banks can, in turn, be stored on an IC memory card for later recall.

In addition to the six main menus, the VTR has two supplementary menus containing items not contained in the main menus.
