VIDEO CASSETTE TAPES
Correct tape thread check function
If the correct tape thread check function is on, after the
cassette tape is loaded, a mechanism will operate for
about 5 seconds to check that the tape has been
threaded (loaded) correctly and the cassette indicator “o”
will blink during that period. If the tape is not loaded
properly, the cassette will be ejected.
NOTES:
œ This function checks to make sure that the cassette
has been correctly loaded. It is recommended to use
this function to make sure the recordings are
conducted reliably.
œ If during the tape thread check operation, the REC,
PLAY or STOP button is pressed or if the SHUTTLE
ring is turned, 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 in the (SET UP 3) menu “TAPE IN MODE” is set to
“REC”, the recording indicator “m” will light during the
while the tape thread is checked. However, recording
will only start after the tape thread check is completed.
To cancel recording, press the STOP button.
1 Press the MENU button until the (SET UP 4) menu is
displayed.
