Auto SP/LP Timer
If, when recording in SP mode, there is not enough tape to
record the entire programme, the recorder automatically
switches to LP mode to allow complete recording.
ENGAGE AUTO SP/LP
TIMER
1
Press AUTO SP/LP TIMER on the recorder front panel.
The AUTO SP/LP TIMER indicator lights “orange”.
For Example . . .
Recording a PAL-broadcast program of 210 minutes in
length onto a 180-minute tape
Make sure you press AUTO SP/LP TIMER before
performing timer programming.
NOTES:
●
The Auto SP/LP Timer feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work
properly with any tapes longer than E-180 as well as some
tapes of shorter lenghs.
●
Even if, in step 1, you press AUTO SP/LP TIMER and it lights
“orange”, that doesn’t mean that the recorder will automati-
cally change from SP to LP mode during the course of the
recording. Watch the tape later to confirm.
●
If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or
more programs, the second programme and those thereafter
may not fit on the tape if you engage the Auto SP/LP Timer
mode. In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then
set the tape speed manually during timer programming.
●
There may be some noise at the point on the tape where the
recorder switches from SP to LP mode.
