Memory backup in case of power failure
This VCR includes a built-in backup memory, so the preset day
and present time will remain in memory even if there is a power
failure. However, if the power cord is disconnected for a long
period of time (2-3 months), the present time may not be
accurate. In this case, set the clock again.
Info.
The battery is fully charged if the VCR’s power cord is
plugged into the outlet for 40 or more hours per week.
If the battery is fully charged, even if the power cord is not
plugged in, the following settings will remain in memory for
up to 31 days:
The day and present time display
Timer program
Alarm list/Power loss list
Number of tape uses/Elapsed time of the VCR
Counter display
Recording/Playback mode
Note
When ALARM REC DURATION of the RECORDING SET
UP menu is set to MAN1 or MAN2 and a power failure
occurs during the alarm recording, the VCR may not return
to the alarm recording mode when the power comes back
on.
After a power failure
If a power failure occurs during manual,
timer or alarm recording, the VCR will
return to the recording mode when the
power comes back on. The Power
Failure symbol (X) will be displayed for
about 1 minute on screen and the Power
Loss indicator (
) will illuminate on the
fluorescent display when the power
comes back on. If a power failure occurs
while the VCR’s power is on, the VCR will
turn on by itself when the power comes
back on.
