Notes
•When you start copying, the first part of the source tape may be dropped on the copied tape.
•You may not be able to copy the first part or an unrecorded portion of the source tape. Locate the recorded portion on the source tape, then start copying.
•When you record on a new or fully rewound tape, do a trial recording for about 15 seconds, then start the actual recording. If you start the actual recording from the beginning of the tape, the first part may not be recorded when you play back the tape on another VCR.
•The recording does not stop the moment you press pto stop editing. The source picture may be recorded a little longer than you expected.
•You can duplicate the photo data only when you use a tape recorded in DVCAM format for a player. If there is a portion recorded in DV format on the tape, recording is suspended and beep sounds. (When “BEEP” is set to “OFF” on the SET UP MENU, only recording is suspended.)
If you copy a source tape, using the DUPLICATE W/TC (duplicate with time code) button on this VCR, you can copy the time code recorded on the source tape as they are. You can easily make a work tape having the same time codes as the source tape.
The duplicate function on this VCR works only when using a source tape recorded in DVCAM format and making DV connections. Connect the LANC jack on this VCR to that on the other VCR, using the LANC cable.
1 Connect this VCR and the other VCR, using a DV cable and select “DV IN” with INPUT SELECT on this VCR.
2 Locate the point where you want to start playback or recording. Then, set this VCR and the other VCR to playback pause mode.
3 After pressing EDIT STANDBY, press DUPLICATE W/TC.
The indicator lights and this VCR enters into recording standby mode. To cancel recording, press EDIT STANDBY again.
4 Press START/PAUSE.
To stop duplicate
Press p(STOP).
