Synchronized Editing; Setting The Lanc Mode - Sony Video 8 EV-A50 Operating Instructions Manual

Synchronized Editing
If your other VCR has a control L connector, you can take advantage of a feature
called "Synchronized Editing" that controls both VCRs (recording VCR and
playback VCR), and releases the pause when the SYNCHRO EDIT button is
pressed. To use this function, you must connect the control cable (LANC cable) in
addition to the connections of the audio and video cables. There are two types of
control cables: control L (REMOTE) cable and control S cable according to the type
of connectors of the VCRs.
After you have made connections on page 50, you must set the LANC MODE. For
details, see page 52.
