to monitor the signal picked up by the play head after it has
been recorded on the tape, in this way, you can check whether
it has deteriorated because of dirt on the head, etc.
This unit automatically enters the source monitor mode when
the record-pause mode is engaged, and the tape monitor mode
when the record or playback mode is engaged.
CD DIRECT INPUT
When a CD player or other component is connected to the CD
DIRECT terminals as shown in "CONNECTiONS" on page 4, a
direct signal will be input without passing through the stereo

COMPU LINK CONTROL SYSTEM
r-r\uiDi 11 ikiif
Control SystBm
The Compu Link Control System controls relative operations
between components automatically and facilitates various
operations.
This is a system originated and developed by JVC for facilitat
ing various system operations. There are two versions of this
system; version 1 and 3. (For version 1 components, "COMPU
LiNK-1 / SYNCHRO" is marked on the rear panel. For version 3
components,"COMPU LINK-3 / SYNCHRO" is marked on the
rear panel. This unit belongs to version 3.)
The version 3 system controls relative functions between this
unit and an amplifier or receiver, in addition to ail of the functions
of version 1.
Automatic Power On/Off (STANDBY) Function (COMPU
LINK-3)
This function is available when an amplifier or receiver having a
COMPU LiNK-3/SYNCHRO terminal is connected. For example,
if a deck contains a tape, the deck is turned on automaticaiiy
and the tape is played back by only pressing the ► (play)
button. When the amplifier or receiver is switched STANDBY,
the source unit is automaticaiiy switched STANDBY.
Synchronized Recording (COMPU LINK-1,3)
Synchronized recording refers to the process in which the deck
starts recording in synchronism with the CD player. Perform the
synchronized recording as follows:
1. Set the cassette deck to the record-pause mode in accordance
with the recording procedures on page 7.
2. if you want the programmed recording, program the desired
tunes in any order you wish to hear.
3. Press the PLAY/PAUSE button of the CD player. By so
doing, the cassette deck is placed in the record mode and
synchronized with the CD player for recording. Synchronized
recording thus can be made possible.
DDRP (Dynamics Detection Recording Processor) recording
The DDRP function makes possible fully automatic recording
when used with a suitable JVC CD player. When the DDRP
button of a suitable JVC CD player is pressed, the recording
level is first adjusted automaticaiiy, then recording starts; it is not
necessary to start recording by the normal procedure.
Notes:
• Synchronized recording or DDRP recording stops automati
caiiy when the CD player stops playing.
• To cancel synchronized recording or DDRP recording, press
the STOP button of the CD player or cassette deck.
• Synchronized recording does not start except when the record-
pause mode IS set by simultaneously pressing the O REC/
REC MUTE and II PAUSE buttons in the stop mode.
• The source is locked to the CD position during synchronized
recording or DDRP recording to avoid accidental stops or
switch-over to another component. To switch over the com
ponents, cancel synchronized recording or DDRP recording
first.
• The INPUT LEVEL control does not function during DDRP
recording.
Automatic Source Selection (COMPU LINK -1,3)
When the provided remote cables are used for connecting this
unit to other components which have COMPU LiNK-1 or
3/SYNCHRO terminals, the switch-over of ail system compo
nents is possible with simple one-touch of the source selector
button of JVC's amplifier or receiver.
By doing this, the corresponding component will start playing
automaticaiiy.
The source select button of the remote control unit or the activa
tion button of the desired component can be also used for this
purpose. When the components have been switched over, the
previous component will stop playing within five seconds.
