Notes
• You cannot pause during a duplicate process.

communication is established so that the first part of
the source tape is dropped on the copied tape.
• Set auto repeat to OFF when the player has an auto
repeat function and set auto rewind to ON when the
player has an auto rewind function.
• If the player has a still timer function, set the still
timer to the longest time possible to ensure enough
time for rewinding the tape to the beginning.
• If you have selected AUTOq
the cassette memory will be duplicated after the tape
has been duplicated. While the cassette memory is
being duplicated, an indicator showing the progress
of the duplication appears on the LCD monitor and
on the analog video output. Duplicating the cassette
memory takes up to a few minutes depending on the
amount of data.
In the following cases, duplication of the cassette
memory will be cancelled and the duplicate operation
will be completed without duplicating the cassette
memory.
If, while the cassette memory is being duplicated;
– you press the STOP button.
– you turn off the power of this unit or of the player.
