*1 Flashes when a new (virgin) tape is used for the first time.
*2 The End ID is a signal which indicates the position of a tape where the recording has ended.
You cannot register the End IDs with this unit, however the unit can play back the tapes
which are registered with the End IDs and detect them. When the unit detects an End ID
during fast forward, it stops there. You can only forward the tape by recording from that
point. When the unit detects an End ID during playback, it enters the auto-rewind mode.
