(Status 1 mode)
When a recordable videocassette is loaded, the GY-DV700W
enters the record-pause mode. However, the record-pause
operation condition differs depending on the setting of the VTR
switch.
● VTR switch setting
STBY : The GY-DV700W enters the record-pause mode, and
the drum is rotating at this time. (Standby mode)
The "STBY" indicator appears in the VCR operation
status display in the viewfinder (in Status 1 mode).
• In this condition, recording starts immediately when
the VTR trigger button is pressed.
SAVE : The GY-DV700W enters the record-pause mode but
the drum is not rotating. (Save mode).
The tape is protected.
The "SAVE" indicator appears in the viewfinder (in
Status 1 mode).
The OPERATE indicator lights orange. The display
backlight turns off.
CAUTION:
When the VCR Setup Menu item No. 396 SSF MODE is
set to the CUE MODE or MARK mode, the VCR save
mode is not entered.
Recording from the Save mode
● In the save mode, pressing the VTR trigger button will start
recording.
However, in this case, it takes several seconds before the
GY-DV700W starts recording.
● Pressing the VTR trigger button again interrupts the recording
and the GY-DV700W enters the save mode again.
• The time until the unit enters the save mode after it is
placed in record-pause mode can be set to 3 minutes or
30 minutes with the VCR Setup Menu item No. 307
LONG PAUSE TIME.
When used in a cold environment, the setting will be 3
minutes regardless of the setting on the VCR Setup
Menu.
