Continuous Playback
Attach two pieces of sensing tape at the two points where the direction
of tape travel is to be changed. When the sensing tape comes in contact
with the sensing pin the direction will change automatically. Thus con-
tinuous playback forward to reverse to forward and so on is possible.
Set the Reverse (REV) SELECTOR to (> and refer to the chart for a
more detailed explanation.
* Recording will take place as in = mode.
* Do not attach sensing tape to any point other than where you want
to change direction for continuous playback.
