signals recorded.

number of the SEC signals recorded.
To set the digital counter to zero
We recommend that you press the RESET button before starting dictation.

(document), SEC (special instruction) and tape counters to zero.
Convenient Functions
To record LTR (letter) and SEC (secretary) signals
You can record electronic index signals on the tape while the unit is set in
recording (dictation), telephone recording, stop or playback (with the
hand control unit) mode.
LTR (letter=end of document) signal: Record at the end of each
document.
SEC (secretary=special instructions to secretary) signal: Record
before giving instructions to the secretary.
When the AUTO STOP function (see page 13) is activated (AUTO STOP:
ON), the tape automatically stops at each index signal when it is rewound
or rapidly advanced. Documents and instructions can be located without
the user's having to listen to the entire tape.
• Before dictating, press RESET to reset the counters to zero.
