4-4-7 TELE FILE Menu

Use the TELE FILE menu to read and update cue point information, log(IN/OUT points) information and cassette-management information on optional MLB- 1B-100 memory labels.

Operations through the TELE FILE menu can be carried out from either the control panel of the VTR or a personal computer connected to the VTR. To use the control panel, specify “control panel” for item 123.Tele-File CONTROL MODE in the VTR SETUP menu. To use a personal computer, specify “RS- 232C.”

Note

Before you can use the menu to operate the VTR from a personal computer, the optional MLZ-100 memory label application software must be installed in the computer.

For details on the use of a personal computer, refer to the operation manual supplied with the optional MLZ-100 memory label application software.

The explanations of menu operations in this chapter assume the use of the VTR control panel.

Note

If TELE FILE menu operations are prohibited (see page 4-39) while the contents of a memory label are being modified, only the data modified prior to the prohibition will be saved to the memory label when the [F10](WRITE/EXIT) button is pressed.

To exit the TELE FILE menu without saving data to a memory label

Note

When you press the EJECT button, all controls on the VTR will become inoperable until the cassette is completely ejected.

If you accidentally press the EJECT button before saving data to a memory label Insert the cassette again within 30 seconds after the ejection and press the [F10](WRITE/EXIT) button. The data that existed before the ejection of the cassette is saved to the memory label.
