To set the end point

Holding down the STOP button, press the F FWD button. The time code (LTC) value of the tape position when the F FWD button was pressed is stored in memory as the end point time data. When the end point has been set, an asterisk (*) appears to the right of the REPEAT indication in the time data display area.

Indicates that the end point is set.

If no end point is set, the end of tape is automatically specified as the repeat playback end point.

Notes

Only LTC data can be stored in memory as end point time data. Neither VITC nor CTL can be used as end point data.

If the start point has already been set, setting the end point at a position before the start point results in deletion of the start point data. (The time code value of the end point cannot be smaller than that of the start point.)

To check the time code of the set start point and end point

Hold down the STOP button and PLAY button simultaneously. As long as you hold down both buttons, the START indication, the start point time code value, the END indication, and the end point time code value are cyclically displayed in this order in the time data display area.

To delete the set start point and end point

Press the EJECT button to eject the cassette. This deletes both the start point and end point.
