Index Search Functions

To facilitate searching for desired scenes, this
Palmcorder automatically records index signals
during recording, as explained in the following.
Photoshot Index Signal
These signals are automatically recorded when
still pictures on a card are recorded to a tape.
Scene Index Signal
Scene Index Signals are automatically recorded
when you start recording after inserting a
Cassette.
≥If [SCENE INDEX] of [RECORDING] Sub-Menu
on the [TAPE RECORDING MENU] is set to
[2HOUR], an index signal is recorded when
recording is restarted after an elapse of 2 hours
or longer. If it is set to [DAY], an index signal is
recorded when recording is restarted after the
date has changed since the last recording.
(While the index signal is being recorded, the
[INDEX] Indication flashes for a few seconds.)
≥If the Palmcorder is switched from the Tape
Playback Mode to Tape Recording Mode or if
the date and time is set before the start of
recording, the index signal is not recorded.
