2-5 ON-SCREEN DISPLAY
2 CONTROLS, CONNECTORS AND DISPLAYS
Operation mode display in the Variable-
motion mode
Noiseless slow-motion playback is available at
speeds of -1.0 to +1.0 times normal.
● Variable-motion playback at speeds outside this range
(from -1.0 times to +1.0 times) results in a distorted
picture.
● When variable-motion playback is performed at speeds
outside the range from -1.0 times to +1.0 times, “!”
appears with the operation mode on the on-screen
display.
The “MUTING” or “CONDITION ALARM” can be shown on screen to make it easy to check VCR operating status
on the monitor connected to the [LINE 2- SUPER OUT] connector.
Ⅲ To display MUTING/CONDITION ALARM on screen, set menu switch No. 512 <MUTING/ALARM MESSAGE>
to “ON (1)”.
This can also be displayed even when setting the [ON SCREEN] switch on the sub panel to OFF.
Error rate degradation can also be checked with
the [CHANNEL CONDITION] indicator on the
front panel (refer to page 22).

CONDITION ALARM display
If video head output (error rate) is degraded during
playback, the “CONDITION ALARM” is shown on
screen.
● When the “CONDITION ALARM” is displayed,
perform manual tracking adjustment or cleaning
with the dedicated head cleaning tape.
MUTING display
● This unit outputs black signals from the built-in
signal generator via the <LINE 2 - SUPER OUT>
connector.
• In Record or EE mode:
When no video signal is input or input signals do not
contain a sync signal
• In Play mode:
When there are no recorded signals (no control signal
recorded) on the tape being played back (With menu
switch No. 120 <NO CTL MUTING> set to “ON”)
● When the input signal is a black signal or when a
tape on which a black signal is recorded is played
back, the monitor’s screen will be black.
To differentiate between the types of black screen
described above, “MUTING” appears on the screen
when the black screen is due to black signals output
from the built-in signal generator.
(Menu switch No. 512 <MUTING/ALARM MESSAGE> set to “ON (1)”)
