of the “REAR TERMINAL” menu to “WRNG•REMAIN”, this delay is eliminated.
• When set in the above configuration and the second VCR reaches the end of the tape, the first VCR automatically begins recording.
Do not connect [*1], if you do not require the first VCR to begin recording again.
• If an abnormality occurs (e.g., a malfunction occurs in the motor during recording) in the first VCR, the second VCR automatically
begins recording.
• Series recording will not function during timer recording.
• When carrying out series recording, set “CALL OUT” in the “REAR TERMINAL” menu to a mode other than “WRNG”.
