OPERATIONS ON VHS DECK (cont.)
Recording Features
Record One Programme While
Watching Another
If your unit is connected to the TV via the AV connection,
press TV/VCR. The unit’s VCR indicator and the TV
broadcast being recorded disappear. Once recording is in
progress, all you need to do is to set the channel controls
on the TV for the station you wish to view.
● The programme selected with the TV’s channel controls
appears on the TV screen, while the one selected with the
unit’s PR buttons is recorded on the tape.
● If a decoder is connected to the unit (
੬ pg. 61), you can
select a scrambled channel as well with the TV channel
controls.
NOTE:
You can also use the DVD deck in the following cases. Before
use, be sure to turn on the unit and select the DVD deck.
● During recording
● During timer recording
● During timer standby mode
Instant Timer Recording (ITR)
This easy method lets you record for
from 30 minutes to 6 hours (selectable in
30-min. increments), and shuts the unit
off after recording is finished.
1 Start recording.
Press 7 on the unit.
2 Engage the ITR mode.
Press 7 again. “⅜” blinks and “0:30” appears on the
front display panel.
3 Set the recording duration.
If you want to record for more than 30 minutes, press 7
to extend the time. Each press extends recording time by
30 minutes.
NOTES:
● You can only perform ITR using the 7 button on the unit’s
front panel.
● Still picture playback stops automatically after 5 minutes to
protect the heads.
● When the end of the tape is reached during timer recording,
the unit stops and “
⅜” and “$” blink on the front display
panel.
● When the end of the tape is reached during timer recording or
Instant Timer Recording, the unit is turned off and “
⅜” and
“$” blink on the front display panel.
● During Instant Timer Recording, any other timer programmed
recording won’t start even if their start time has come. In such
a case, the timer programmed recording starts (if the end time
of the timer programmed recording is set after the end of
Instant Timer Recording) after the Instant Timer Recording
finishes.
Elapsed Recording Time Indication
1 Set the counter display.
Press ––:–– until a counter reading appears on the front
display panel.
2 Reset the counter.
Press 0000 before starting recording or playback.
● The counter is reset to “0:00:00” and shows the exact elapsed
time as the tape runs. You can check the exact time of a
recording or playback.
Tape Remaining Time
Press ––:–– until the time remaining on the tape
appears.
● The front display panel shows the tape remaining time with
“z” displayed.
● By pressing the ––:–– button, you can change the display to
show the clock time, counter reading or tape remaining time.
NOTES:
● When you press ––:––, the on-screen display appears on the
TV screen for 5 seconds, then the displays other than the
counter disappears. To clear the counter display, press ––:––.
● Depending on the type of tape being used, the tape remaining
time reading may not appear right away, or is not correct.
“– –:– –” may sometimes appear, or the display may blink on
occasion.
● Turn on the TV and select the video channel (or AV
mode).
● Slide the TV/VCR/DVD switch to the right.
