Using On-Screen Menus
Tape Speed
You can choose a preferred tape speed for recording; either Standard Play (SP)
or Super Long Play (SLP). The speed selected appears in the VCR’s display
panel and in timer recording menus.
To Select a Preferred Tape Speed:
In the PREFERENCES menu, press the 6 button repeatedly to switch between SP
and SLP settings.
Note: See the note to the left for an explanation of recording speeds.
To Override the Preferred Tape Speed:
• Press the SPEED button on the remote control.
• Set the tape speed in the timer recording menu.
When you turn off the VCR, the tape speed reverts to the one you have selected.
Set Auto Repeat
A tape can be set to play in a repeating loop over and over with the Set Auto
Repeat feature. Set Auto Repeat uses the VCR’s memory counter to determine
the duration of the loop.
In the PREFERENCES menu, press the 7 button to choose Set Auto Repeat. The Set
Auto Repeat dialog box will ask for a loop end time to be specified:
• The CLEAR key will erase all numbers entered and move the cursor back to
the first position (hours).
• The Press CLEAR to turn off message will appear only after the first number
has been entered into the end time.
• Auto Repeat is set back to -:-- by resetting the dialog box, by cassette ejecting
or insertion, by powering off the VCR, by power interruption, or by
recording start.
When a duration time has been set:
• The VCR will automatically switch to rewind if the counter meets or goes
past the Auto Repeat set duration.
• The VCR will automatically switch to playback during rewind if the counter
equals or is less than 0:00.
• The Auto Repeat may be adjusted by setting the counter to 00:00. This can
be done by pressing the CLEAR button while the tape counter is on screen
or on the front panel display.
• The counter will not reset while rewinding in an Auto Repeat loop.
