Note

 

 

 

When the unit is in tension release mode, the head drum is

 

 

 

still rotating, so the picture can be output and monitored. That

 

 

 

is, it is still in “standby on” mode (i.e. is on standby).

 

 

 

Therefore, care should be taken over the setting if it is

 

 

 

critically important whether the unit is in “standby on” or

 

 

 

“standby off” mode (for example when the unit is used for

 

 

 

broadcasting).

Note

 

 

 

 

When the unit is in step forward or tension release mode, the

 

 

 

head drum is still rotating, so the picture can be output and

 

 

 

monitored. That is, it is still in “standby on” mode (i.e. is on

it is critically important whether the unit is in “standby on” or
