VIDEO CASSETTE TAPES
Correct tape thread check function
This function checks to make sure that the cassette has
been correctly loaded so that recording can be carried
out.
NOTES:
œ After the cassette tape is loaded, the mechanism will
operate for about 5 seconds to check that the tape
has been threaded (loaded) correctly automatically
and the cassette indicator “o” will flash during that
period. If the tape is not loaded properly, the cassette
will be ejected.
œ If the REC, PLAY, FF, REW or STOP button is
pressed during the tape thread check operation, the
command will only be executed after the tape thread
has been checked. Only the EJECT button will
operate while the tape thread is being checked.
œ If “TAPE IN MODE” in the (GENERAL SET) menu is
set to “REC”, the recording indicator “a” will light while
the tape thread is being checked. However, recording
will only start after the tape thread check is completed.
