1-4 Daily Inspection
Erasure prevention tab
• Only use video cassette bearing the mark.
• To prevent accidental erasure of a recorded tape, break
the erasure prevention tab on the cassette. To use a
cassette with a broken tab, place a piece of cellophane
tape over the broken tab.
• Video cassettes cannot be used upside down.
• Leaving the tape in a partially wound condition for a long
time may damage the tape. Rewind the tape to the
beginning before storage.
To obtain the best picture quality, use an HG (high
grade) tape (a JVC cassette is recommended).
Degradation of picture quality may result with some
types of tape. Make a test recording before
performing any important recording to check the
picture quality.
1 INTRODUCTION
Timelapse recording is performed over very
long periods of time which means that a
durable tape is required.
When using VHS tapes, do not use tapes with
recording times of more than 120 minutes
(T-160/T-180 etc.).
For best results, use a T-120 tape.
If any problems are found after inspection, turn the
power off, unplug the power plug from the AC outlet,
and contact your JVC dealer.
