TIME AND DATE SEARCH
You can find a picture recorded at a specific date and time.
1. Press the SEARCH button enough times to highlight TIME DATE SEARCH on the
Search Function menu. The time and date search indicator (D) on the fluorescent
display lights.
2. Turn the SHUTTLE ring right. The Time Date Search menu appears.
Turn the SHUTTLE ring left several times to exit the Time Date Search menu without
searching.
3. Turn the JOG dial to set the digits for the hour you want to find next to TIME. Turn the
SHUTTLE ring right.
4. Set the 10-minute and 1-minute digits in the same way.
5. Set the date using the JOG dial and SHUTTLE ring in the same manner.
6. Set the direction (forward or reverse) in which to search the tape using the JOG dial
and SHUTTLE ring.
(When the desired part of the tape is not found in the selected direction, the VCR
automatically searches in the opposite direction.)
7. Turn the SHUTTLE ring right to begin searching. When the recorded picture is found,
it is shown in still mode.
8. To quit while searching, press STOP.
The VCR writes an index mark on the tape at each hour (1:00, 2:00, etc.) during recording.
The time and date search cannot be resumed if the hour’s index mark (set in step 3) is not
recorded on the tape. (For example, if the VCR recorded from 8:15 to 17:30 on the tape,
only pictures between 9:00 and 17:30 can be found.)
The time and date search may not function correctly if you used a tape with poor recording
quality or with alarm recordings in several recording modes. Also, it will not function with a
tape recorded with other VCRs or with a tape recorded without setting the date and time.
