Third byte

Specify the condition for canceling the alarm recording started by the alarm input.

Bit 7: Set to 1 to cancel alarm recording when it reaches the end of the tape.

Bit 6: Set to 1 to cancel alarm recording when the alarm input stops.

Bit 4: Set to 1 to cancel alarm recording when the time specified by the third and fourth bytes has elapsed.

Third and fourth bytes

Specify the time in units of seconds until canceling alarm recording in BCD.

This time setting is valid only when bit 4 of the third byte is set to 1.

Fifth and sixth bytes

Specify the time in units of seconds to record before alarm input in pre-alarm recording mode in BCD. This setting is valid only for pre-alarm mode.

TIMER PRESET (DAH+9BH)

Specifies the requirements of timer recording. Parameter bytes to follow to specify the timer number code and the items are shown below

To change the requirements for each day of the week, issue this command repeatedly for each of the days.
