JUST-IN TIME RECORDING
This function allows you to fully utilize the available tape length for timer recording. The VCR calculates the
remaining tape amount and then adjusts the tape speed from SP to SLP as needed.
If it is suspected that the end of the tape will be reached before the reserved program ends (as long as SP mode
is kept all the way), set recording mode to AUTO. This function is available only with Program No. 1 (Timer
Recording).
The auto mode starts recording in SP mode. The internal circuit compares the rest of the program against the
available tape length. If the internal circuit determines that the available tape is not long enough to record the
program in the SP mode, the Recording mode is automatically changed to SLP mode. This will assure coverage
of the desired program before the end of the tape is reached.
Notes:
• Set the tape remainder switch ("~T60", "~T130" or "T140~") to the tape loaded. See "Setting the Remaining
Time" on next page.
• Even if SLP mode is selected, just-in time recording cannot compensate for a tape length which may be too
short.
• A momentary picture break up will occur at the point on the tape when the recording speed changes from SP to
SLP.
