You can determine which recording mode — either S-VHS mode or VHS mode — is used for
recording on D-VHS and S-VHS tapes.
When this function is set to “ON”, you can record on D-VHS and S-VHS tapes with S-VHS
picture quality.
When this function is set to “OFF”, you can record on D-VHS and S-VHS tapes with VHS
picture quality.
NOTES:
To record in S-VHS/VHS mode on D-VHS tape, press D-VHS to turn off the [D-VHS] indicator.
S-VHS mode allows you to make high quality video recordings with horizontal resolution of
400 lines, comparing with the 230 lines of resolution of conventional VHS recordings. To
achieve the highest quality picture we recommend to record in S-VHS mode. (But remember
that a conventional VHS VCR without SQPB cannot play back S-VHS tapes recorded in S-
VHS mode.)
S-VHS MODE setting does not affect recording on VHS tapes. Recording on VHS tapes is
always performed in VHS mode except when using S-VHS ET mode (
page 41).
The [REMOTE PAUSE/AV COMPULINK] terminal on the rear panel can be used as either the
[REMOTE PAUSE] terminal or the [AV COMPULINK] terminal.
When this function is set to “ON”, you can use this terminal as the [AV COMPULINK] terminal.
By connecting other JVC’s [AV COMPULINK] components (see the diagram below), including
amplifiers (or receivers) and televisions, one touch control of the audio and video components
linked via their [AV COMPULINK] connectors becomes possible.
For example: simply load a cassette in the VCR and press [PLAY ( 3 )] so that the [AV
COMPULINK] components automatically turn on, the TV’s AV mode is selected and the VCR
starts playback. (You do not have to press [PLAY ( 3 )] if the cassette’s record safety tab is
removed.)
When this function is set to “OFF”, you can use this terminal as the [REMOTE PAUSE] terminal
( page 21).
NOTES:
When the remote control code is set to “C” or “D”, the connector cannot be used as [AV
COMPULINK] terminal even if “AV COMPU-LINK” is set to “ON”. It is recommended to set
the remote control code to “A” when you use this function. (
page 46).
Connection varies depending on the type of JVC TV you have. Refer to the TV’s instruction
manual when making this connection.
