TAPE COUNTER AND MEMORY STOP 79
Tape Counter
& Memory Stop
Your 8mm/VHS Dual-Deck VCR Tape Counter allows you to
note the location of specific sections of your tapes and find
them quickly later. This Tape Counter counts in real time—
hours, minutes, and seconds.
You can see the Tape Counter for both decks on the On
Screen Display. You can see the Tape Counter for the active
deck on the Front Panel Display by pressing the
CLK/CTR
key on the remote control. (Pressing repeatedly switches
the display between the clock, the counter and the time
remaining.)
You can reset the Tape Counter to 00:00:00 (the zero point)
by pressing the
RESET
key on the remote control. You can reset
the zero point anywhere on the tape. For example, a T-120
tape in SP mode lasts two hours. If you reset the Tape
Counter to the zero point at the beginning of the tape, the
Counter will run from 00:00:00 to 2:00:00. If you were to
reset the Tape Counter to the zero point in the exact middle
of the tape, the Counter would run from -1:00:00 to 1:00:00.
Any time you insert a tape into your 8mm/VHS Dual-Deck
VCR, the Tape Counter will automatically reset to 00:00:00.
If you insert a tape that is partially rewound, the zero point
will be set at that point in the middle of the tape. We recom-
mend that you rewind each tape to the beginning, and press
RESET
so that the zero point is at the beginning of the tape.
Memory Stop
If you wish, you can set the active deck of your 8mm/VHS
Dual-Deck VCR so that the tape will stop at the zero point
when rewinding or fast-forwarding. To do this, press the
MEMORY
key on your remote control. You will see an M below
the Tape Counter setting on the On Screen Display.
Note:
Pressing
RESET
while in the On
Screen Menu System will not
reset the Tape Counter. While in
the SET CLOCK MENU, the
TIMER RECORD screen, the
TIMER RECORD SUMMARY, the
TITLER SET UP screen, or the
Automatic Edit Scene List, the
Reset key will reset items in
these menus. See the
appropriate sections in this
Guide for details.
