Tape Counter Notes:

counter indicates real hours, minutes and seconds.
œ In the other recording speed modes, the tape counter
indication is a ratio of the 8-hour mode base
indication. (In 40-hour recording mode, each second
of the tape counter actually represents approximately
40/8 = 5 real seconds.)
œ There may be a slight discrepancy between the
position shown on the tape counter and the actual
tape position.
œ When rewinding the tape past the “0:00:00” position, a
minus () sign will be displayed.
