Auto Sp Lp Timer; Auto Timer - JVC HR-J259EE Instructions Manual

Auto SP LP Timer

(HR-J459EE only)
If, when timer-recording in SP mode, there is not enough tape to
record the entire programme, the recorder automatically
switches to LP mode to allow complete recording.
For Example . . .
Recording a PAL-broadcast programme of 210 minutes in length
onto a 180-minute tape.
Approximately 150 minutes
SP mode
Total 210 minutes
Make sure you set "AUTO SP LP TIMER" to "ON" at the Mode

NOTES:
If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or
more programmes, the second programme and those
thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set "AUTO SP LP
TIMER" to "ON". In this case, make sure the mode is not
engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer
programming.
In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this
feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of
the tape.
There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point
on the tape where the recorder switches from SP to LP mode.
The Auto SP LP Timer feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work
properly with any tapes longer than E-180 or with some tapes
of shorter lengths.
If you perform timer recording with both VPS and the Auto
SP LP Timer activated, and the programme goes beyond its
originally scheduled length, there may be times when the
programme cannot be recorded in its entirety.
Approximately 60 minutes
