2.4 Tape transport commands
-
The tape can
be
spooled forward with the
key
trtr
[5] or back-
ward with the key
<<
t6l
- An exact tape Iocation can
be
found by holding down
the
STOP
key [3]
while
inching the tape
forward
or backward by
touching
the corresponding spooling key [5] or
[6]).
-
lf
the
tape
is
rewound to
the start,
the real-time counter accu-
racy and,
therefore, the repeatability
is
very high. Any
tape lo-
cation can
be
traced
with
high
precision.
However,
this
is
only
valid
if
the entered cassette playing
time corresponds to the
utilized cassette.
-
lf a
non-rewound
cassette
is
inserted, the
momentary counter
reading
is
computed after
a
few
seconds of playing time
and
the current tape location
is
indicated
in
the display
[1'1]
(how-
ever,
the repeatability
of
the real-time counter
is
not
as
accur-
ate as in
the above
mentioned method
in
which the cassette
is
first
rewound
to the
start).
Note:
The
cassette recorder automatically switches to
STOP as soon
as
the
tape end
is
reached.
The
transparent
leader tape is
recog-
nized bV
an optical tape sensor. After
fast rewind
(key
<<
16l)
has been pressed, the recorder automatically searches the tape
sta
rt (the counter
is reset to zero). The
transport command
keys
can be pressed in any sequence without passing via
STOP
