• When the VCR has been used in the recording mode over a long period, it may take considerable time for computation. When

operating at fast speed in the A2-hour mode, the computation is faster.

Note:

It is possible to compute the remaining time for T-120, T-90, T-60 and T-30 tape. The display will not be correct for other kinds of

tape.

cleaning is still not possible, "E-6" is displayed and the HED display blinks on the monitor although recording continues. In

such a case, cleaning of the video heads is required.

(*1): Without an alarm trigger input and an one-shot trigger input.

• The possible recording time depends on the type of video tape used.

• Audio recording is possible in the A2, A6, A12, A18 and A24 hour modes.

• The A12, A24, 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, 240, 480, 720 and 960 modes are time lapse modes.

• For one-shot recording, set the VCR in the L01, L02 or L03 record mode.

• In L01, L02 or L03 modes, the VCR is set to recording pause mode. The alarm recording starts by an alarm trigger signal input,

and the VCR is set to recording pause mode again to wait for next alarm trigger input. Also the one-shot recording starts by an

one-shot trigger signal input, and the VCR is set to recording pause mode again to wait for next one-shot trigger input. When

recording pause mode continues for appointed time (L01: 1 min, L02: 2 min, L03: 3 min.) without an alarm trigger and an one-shot

trigger input, the VCR forwards the tape 2 fields with recording to protect the tape and the video head from damage.

HOW TO OPERATE 24 HOUR VIRTUAL REAL TIME MODE

• In order to operate 24 hour virtual real time mode, please use T-160 VHS video tape with A18 record mode. A18 mode means

that T-120 tape will run 18 hours. However, if you use longer length of video tape which is T-160, it will record up to 24 hours

with A18 mode. Also, when you use A18 mode for recording, you will get 20 fields of video information per second, A24 mode

will be less than 5 fields video information per second. (Refer to the above chart for the details.)

• When using the T-160 tape, it will be necessary to replace the tape with new one and make a cleaning of the mechanical deck

of this VCR more frequently. Because, the thickness of T-160 tape is about 3/4 of T-120 tape, so durability, mechanical

strength, etc. of the tape are inferior to T-120 tape.

Notes:

When the PAUSE button is pressed during recording, the VCR goes to the pause mode. To release, press either the PAUSE

button again or the REC button. If the VCR is in pause mode for longer than 10 minutes the VCR will automatically go into stop

When recording is interrupted or the recording time is changed, the pictures may be disturbed at that location.

If a power failure should occur, it is possible to resume recording in the same time mode as long as the power is restored within

approximately 10 days.

During repeat recording, pay attention to the following points.

• Timer recording and alarm recording is not possible during automatic rewind.

• The buzzer does not sound even at tape end.

• When an operation button is pressed during automatic rewind, the repeat recording function does not operate. Reset to the

recording mode.

The time mode button is not accepted during alarm recording or timer recording.

Make sure to carry out daily check for repeat recording or timer recording.

Note:

When a power failure occurs (10 days or less in duration) during recording or timer recording, the VCR resumes automatically to

the same mode when the power is restored regardless of whether “RESTART REC” is ON or OFF.

When the power is recovered after more than 10 days have passed, the tape remains at the position where it stopped when the

power failure occurred.

TIMER RECORDING

There are two kinds of timer recording. One is daily timer recording, and the other is weekly timer recording.

Once the timer programs are set, the VCR can retain all programmed information in the event of a power failure (10 day maximum

memory storage). Before setting timer programs, make sure that the present time is correct. (See page 15 ~ 16.)

Setting the Timer Program

The timer programs are set on the two pages of PROGRAM screen which provides “on/skip”, start time, end time and recording

time mode for setting.

The blinking position moves to right direction or downward with the

SHIFT button, and to opposite direction with

SHIFT

button. When the program event is set to SKIP, timer recording will not be carried out even if the start or end time is set.

ALARM RECORDING

If an alarm condition arises, the alarm function operates with an alarm input signal.

Operation at Alarm Input

When there is an alarm during recording, recording pause or stop modes, the VCR automatically goes into alarm recording mode.

The VCR can be programmed to record in the following time modes during alarm recording: A2, A6, A12, A18, A24.

Alarm input

Recording

Recording pause

Stop

Recording

Recording pause

Stop

A2, A6, A12, A18,

Alarm Recording

When there is an alarm input in the STOP mode, a slight delay will occur in start of the alarm recording.

When the pause mode continues for 10 minutes the VCR goes to the stop mode. This occurs in order to protect the video heads

and tape. While in pause mode, the video head is constantly tracing the same location.

Alarm recording will not operate from power off mode and timer power off mode.

Event Recording

If event recording is desired, set the VCR’s recording mode to L01, L02 or L03. In order to accomplish this press the time mode

button until “L01”, “L02” or “L03” is shown.

If there is no alarm input present when in “L01”, “L02” or “L03” mode, the VCR automatically forwards 2 fields with recording every

appointed time (L01: 1min, L02: 2min, L03: 3min.) to protect the tape and the video head from damage.

Warning at Alarm Recording

When an alarm signal is input, the buzzer sounds and the alarm display on the VCR DISPLAY lights.

Alarm display lights and then blinks when alarm recording is finished.

set.

What is condensation?

Times when condensation occurs.

If you pour cold beer in a glass, water droplets gather on

the surface of the glass. This phenomenon is known as

condensation.

• When the video device has been suddenly transferred

from a cold place to a warm place.

• When using the device in a room where the heating has

just been turned on or exposed directly to the cold air

from an air conditioner.

When the device is suddenly transported from an air-

conditioned room or vehicle to a place with high tempera-

ture and humidity in summer.

When condensation occurs.

If you continue to use the video device in this state, the

tape will cling to the internal parts of the VCR, causing

damage to the tape and video heads.

• When used in a room with high humidity where steam is

rising, for example.

Cautions:

Do not install the VCR in a location near heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,

excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or impacts.

Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the VCR on soft surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.), too

near materials such as curtains and draperies or in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack.

Keep the VCR and the video cassettes away from strong magnetic fields.

To disconnect the lead, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the lead itself.

Do not drop any inflammable or metallic objects, or liquid into the VCR. This may cause damage to the VCR.

Do not hit or shake the VCR when moving it. This may cause damage.

Remove the cassette from the VCR when not in use.

Save the original carton and packing materials: they will come in handy if you ever have to transport your VCR.

For maximum protections, repack the VCR as it was originally packed at the factory.

Do not use volatile liquids such as insect spray near the VCR.

Do not leave rubber or plastic products touching the VCR for a long time. They will damage the finish.
