Using One-Touch Recording (OTR)
One-Touch Recording (OTR) is a way to begin recording immediately, and have
your VCR stop recording and turn off automatically after your show is over.
1 When you record a digital broadcast in D-VHS format, follow the steps 1 to 4
on page 26.
When you record a digital broadcast in S-VHS/S-VHS ET/VHS format, follow
the steps 1 to 6 on page 27.
When you record an analog broadcast in S-VHS/S-VHS ET/VHS format, follow
the steps 1 to 5 on page 28.
2 Press REC/˙REC LENGTH on the front panel twice. The first time you press
the button, recording will begin. The second press of the same button adds 30
minutes to the OTR timer, displayed on the front panel. The OTR 2/˙REC
LENGTH on the remote control can also be used. When you first press this
button, the VCR will begin recording and 30 minutes is added to the OTR timer.
3 Press REC/˙REC LENGTH or OTR 2/˙REC LENGTH for each additional 30
minutes you want to add to the OTR timer, up to 4 hours. If you press REC/
˙REC LENGTH 10 times or OTR 2/˙REC LENGTH 9 times, you will see
End on the front panel display. The VCR will record until the end of the tape. If
you press REC/˙REC LENGTH an eleventh time, the VCR will resume
normal manual recording. If you press OTR 2/˙REC LENGTH a tenth time,
0:00 will be displayed on the front panel display and the recording will stop.
The OTR timer will begin to count down backwards. When it reaches zero, the
VCR will stop recording and turn off. The OTR light on the front panel display will
light up during the OTR recording.
If you program too much time into the OTR timer
Continue pressing REC/˙REC LENGTH or OTR 2/˙REC LENGTH. After the
End point you can start over from zero, adding time in 30 minute intervals.
How OTR affects other controls
If you press PAUSE during OTR, the VCR will pause recording, but the OTR timer
continues to count down.
Press PAUSE again to resume recording from the record-pause mode. The REC/
˙REC LENGTH will not resume your recording.
If you press STOP during OTR, you erase the OTR programming.
