Auto Repeat using an external AC timer

If you connect an external AC timer (not supplied) to this unit, you can repeat playback automatically at a preset time.

1 Connect this unit to an external AC timer (not supplied).

DSR-45/45P (rear panel)

AC timer

to an AC outlet

2 Set the TIMER selector on the front panel of this unit to REPEAT.

3 Set the starting time on the external AC timer.

At the preset time, the power of this unit turns on, and after a few seconds (no more than 30), Auto Repeat playback starts automatically. The unit repeats the playback from the beginning to the first index (if there is no signal for Index search on the tape, to the next unrecorded portion; if there is no unrecorded portion, to the end of the tape).

Notes

•The unit cannot detect a signal for Index search or an unrecorded portion within 20 seconds of the beginning of the playback.

•When you intend to turn the unit off, press the STOP button on this 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 an index signal 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.

To stop Auto Repeat

Press the STOP button on this unit.

To release the Auto Repeat mode

Set the TIMER selector on the front panel to OFF.
