Timer Counter; Memory-Stop Feature - RCA CC174 Owner's Manual

Time Counter
The time-counter display shows the
actual time elapsed when recording a
program or playing back a segment of a
prerecorded tape.
The time counter also helps you quickly
locate the end of programs. Note the
time counter reading when you finish
recording or playing back a tape. For
example, you recorded for 10 minutes.
Later, you want to locate the end of your
recording-insert the tape, display the
time counter, and fast forward the tape
until the time counter reads "0: 1O:OO".
Memory-Stop Feature
The memory-stop feature helps you
locate a certain point on the tape. This is
useful if you want to review a section
immediately after recording or return to
the same place on the tape several times
during playback. When memory stop is
on, the tape will stop automatically
during rewind or fast forward when the
time counter reaches M 0:OO:OO.
1. Press the C. MEMORY button to turn
the time counter's memory stop
feature on or off. When memory stop
is on, an M appears before the time
counter in the viewfinder.

When you want to return to the place
you marked, press the thumb trigger to
stop recording, or the STOP button to
stop playing back the tape.

button. The tape will rewind to the
time counter reading of M 0:OO:OO.
Notes:
Whenever the time counter is
displayed, you can reset it to M 0:OO:OO by
pressing the C. RESET button.
Whenever memory stop is on, the camcorder
will stop rewinding or fast forwarding when
the counter reaches A4 0:OO:OO. To continue
rewinding or fast forwarding, press the REW
or FF button again.
The time counter does not operate during
high-speed rewind or fast-forward operation.
The time counter's memory is automatically
cancelled when the power supply is
disconnected.

to return to, and press the C. RESET
button to set the time counter to
