INDEX "mark." This function only works with recordings that have been set up with
indexing. You create an INDEX mark every time you press the REC button while
recording. For more on how this gets recorded, see the section on Recording a Program
(page 33).
This VCR's indexing system is based on the VHS Index Search System (VISS). The
new system may not recognize index marks on tapes recorded on older VCRs.
If the VCR is in PLAY mode, press STOP.
Press DISPLAY. This brings up the Set Go-To Time/Index Screen.
Press 7 for rewind or 9 for forward to begin the index search.
The tape rewinds or fast-forwards until an index mark is detected. During this search,
the words SCAN AND PLAY display on the bottom of your screen.
When the VCR finds an index mark, it plays 15 seconds of the program that begins at
that spot.
If this is the program you were looking for, press PLAY to resume normal playback.
If this is not the program you want, don't press anything. After 15 seconds, the VCR
will move to the next mark and play a part of that program. The VCR will continue
searching until you press STOP or reach the end of the tape.
When you find the program you want and press PLAY, the VCR returns to PLAY mode.
To stop the index search before an index mark is reached, press STOP.
If there are no index marks on the tape, the VCR will just rewind to the beginning or fast
forward to the end.
