Preparations
The UC9Hi's auto editing function enables you to
smoothly rerecord scenes from an original tape in
any order. You can then view the entire finished
product and make all the fine adjustments you want
before the final recording. It is easy to reorder or
re-adjust scenes.
• See your VCR instruction manual.

Setting the Camera to Control your
VCR
The camcorder's auto editing function controls your
VCR by using the same infra-red signals as the
VCR's remote control.
Make sure the camera is in a spot where it can
remotely control your VCR.
1. Check where the remote control sensor
is on your VCR using its normal remote
control.
1. Connect the camera to the VCR.
• See the "Playback Connection" instructions on
page 14.
2. Turn the TV on.
• Be sure to set it to the video channel, or set
the TV/Video selector to Video.
3. Turn on the VCR and load a blank
cassette.
4. Set the VCR to line-input and put the
VCR in record-pause mode.
5. Turn the camera's program selector to
EDIT.
• When you set the program selector to EDIT,
all viewfinder displays are also displayed on
the screen of the TV attached to your VCR.
However, these displays will not be recorded
onto the tape in the VCR.
2. Place the camera pointing directly at
the sensor, not more 50 cm (20 inches)
away.
• Check that the sensor will pick up signals
easily from this spot using the VCR's normal
remote control.
• Make sure that the cables and the camera
strap do not obstruct the signals.
3. Make sure that the VCR is in record-
pause mode.
• In other words: it is ready to record, with a
blank tape loaded and record and pause on.
