This VCR offers two special recording functions,
TIMER recording and ALARM recording.
REC CHECK
This function allows you to check whether the pic-
tures are being recorded normally or not during
recording.
When the PLAY button is pressed during recording,
the recorded picture is played back for several sec-
onds. Then recording will continue.
AUTO REC CHECK
If tape reaches the end during recording, this func-
tion allows the VCR to automatically rewind the tape
and play it back for several seconds. If AUTO REC
CHECK detects from playback that the tape has been
normally recorded, the VCR will rewind the tape to
its start. If AUTO REC CHECK detects that the tape
has not been normally recorded, “REC CHECK” will
appear at the top left of the monitor screen.
Note: If “AUTO REC CHECK: ON” is specified in
SELECTION MENU 2, the buzzer will keep sounding
when tape has not been normally recorded.
TIMER RECORDING
This VCR can also record at any speed on TIMER
command (turn on/off to record during any 24-hour
time period). To program the TIMER function, refer
to pages 15 and 16.
To operate the TIMER recording function; follow the
TAPE RECORDING procedure, step 1, then press the
TIMER button to activate the programmed TIMER
function.
