CHAPTER 2 - OPERATING YOUR DUAL-DECK VCR 21
Copying a Tape
You may use the Copy Tape feature to copy a tape
from Deck One to Deck Two.
1. Make sure the tape in Deck Two is long enough to
record the entire tape in Deck One. A T-120 tape
may not copy the entire tape if the source tape is
longer than 2 hours.
You can change the recording time on the tape
in Deck Two by changing the Record Speed in the
Deck Two menu. Speed Matching must be off.
2. Insert your source tape into Deck One at the top of
the Dual-Deck VCR. Insert your blank tape into
Deck Two at the bottom of your VCR.
3. Press
COPY
on your remote control or on the front
panel of your VCR.
Your Dual-Deck VCR will now make a copy of
your tape.
If you wish to pause in the copying process, press
COPY
again. To resume copying, press
COPY
again. To stop
the copying process, press
STOP
on Deck Two.
See page 33 for an explanation of EZ Copy.
NOTE:
EP is 3 times longer than SP. Speed
Matching in the Features menu
must be off for you to change copy
recording speed on Deck Two. If Speed
Matching is on, the recording speed
will automatically adjust to the same as
the current play speed in Deck One.
NOTE:
While using the Copy Tape feature, you
can view a TV program while copying a
tape by pushing the TV/VCR key to TV
and change channels on your TV or use
VIEW to select Tuner and then select the
channel on your VCR.
NOTE:
Optimum results will be obtained when
using HQ1 if the source type is in SP
or any tape with Copy Guard.
For source tapes in EP or LP without
Copy Guard use HQ2 for best results.
To perform special effects copy such
as ‘still’ and ‘slow’ HQ Copy must
be set to HQ2.
