Note: Auto Tape Speed Select
The VTR's Auto Tape Speed Select function
compares the duration of the timer recording to
the actual recording time remaining on the tape
loaded. If there is insufficient tape to complete a
timer recording in AUTO mode, the VTR
automatically switches to LP mode to record the
whole programme.
E.g.
If there is a one hour Timer recording in
AUTO mode to be started, and only 40 minutes
tape remaining, the VTR will record in SP for 20
minutes and switch to complete the remaining 40
minutes in LP mode.
