Index Search
This function allows you to index the starting point to make it easy to reach
the point in either fast forward or rewind mode.
• Every time you start recording, an index is marked
automatically. The index mark also works as the start-
ing point of timer recording.
• The index mark will not be recorded if [PAUSE F] is
used during recording.
• The time gap between making the index marks on
the tape should be greater than 1 minute for SP
recording, 2 minutes for LP recording and 3 minutes
for SLP recording.
• In some cases, the index mark at the beginning of
cassette tape cannot be detected.
Example: You are watching program number 4 and want
to fast forward to program number 7. Skip three programs.
