Set Auto Repeat
A tape can be set to play the same segment over and over in a repeating loop
with the Set Auto Repeat feature. Set Auto Repeat uses the VCR’s memory
counter to determine the duration of the loop.
In the PREFERENCES menu, press the 7 button to choose Set Auto Repeat. The
SET AUTO REPEAT menu will ask for an ending time for the loop to be
specified:
• The CLEAR button will erase all three numbers entered and move the cursor
back to the first position (hours).
• The Press CLEAR to turn off message will appear only after the first number
has been entered into the end time.
• Auto Repeat is set back to -:-- by resetting the dialog box, ejecting a tape,
powering off the VCR, power interruption, or by recording start.
When a duration time has been set:
• The VCR will automatically switch to rewind if the counter meets or goes
past the set Auto Repeat duration.
• The VCR will automatically switch to playback during rewind if the counter
equals or is less than 0:00.
• The Auto Repeat may be adjusted by setting the counter to 00:00. This can
be done by pressing the CLEAR button while the tape counter is on screen
or on the front panel display.
• The counter will not reset while rewinding in an Auto Repeat loop.
