LOCATING THE START OF ALARM RECORDINGS
This machine automatically inserts an index signal at the beginning of each ALARM RECORDING, allowing the start of each alarm
to be located.
^ INDEX SEARCH
During fast forward or rewind the machine will search for index signals. When an Index signal is found, the VCR will playback the
tape and stay in still mode.
1 Press the COUNTER MEMORY/SKIP/INDEX button to illuminate “INDEX” on the fluorescent display.
(On the fluorescent display “INDEX” will be illuminated and the number indication will be illuminated.)
2 Turn the JOG dial to display the number (1-15) corresponding to the alarm index you desire to locate.
3 Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right (forward direction) or left (reverse direction).
(The program indication number will decrease one by one as each index signal goes by.)
• The index signal may be difficult to locate in some recording conditions.
^ SKIP SEARCH
The VCR will fast forward or rewind until an index signal is located and then playback for about 4 seconds in 3H mode. This process
is repeated until the end or beginning of the tape is reached.
