Time Counter
The time counter shows the actual time it takes to record a program or play
back a segment of a prerecorded tape. It helps locate the beginning or end
of programs you taped. The time counter resets to 0:00:00 whenever the
tape is ejected from the VCR.
For example, if a 30-minute program was recorded at the beginning of the
tape, you would:
1. Insert the prerecorded tape. Press STOP. Make sure the tape is
rewound.
2. Press DISPLAY three times to display only the time counter on the
TV screen.
3. Press CLEAR to reset the time counter to 0:00:00.
4. Press FF on remote or turn the SHUTTLE DIAL on the VCR
clockwise to fast forward the tape until the time counter reads
0:30:00. Press STOP.
This is the approximate end of the program and you can begin
recording at this spot.
5. Press DISPLAY twice to remove the time counter from the screen
and return to the normal displays.
