PAUSE
START RECORDING
Press and hold REC and
press PLAY on the remote
control, or press REC on
the VCR's front panel.
The VCR takes about 7
seconds to assess the
quality of the tape in
use, then recording
begins with the picture
level optimized.
NOTES:
Calibration occurs
immediately prior to
both the first SP and the
first EP recording after
inserting the cassette. It
does not take place
during recording.
In the case of timer
recording, calibration takes place for both SP and EP
before the first timer recording after inserting the cassette
(regardless of the tape speed selected for that recording).
Once the cassette is ejected, the calibration data is
canceled. The next time the cassette is used for
recording, calibration is re-performed.
While Active Video Calibration is operative, the
PAUSE button will not function.
SUPERIMPOSE must be set to "ON" or the Active
Video Calibration screen will not appear (
ATTENTION:
As calibration takes place before recording actually starts,
there is a delay of about 7 seconds after REC and PLAY on
the remote, or REC on the VCR's front panel, are pressed.
To make sure you record the desired scene or program
completely, first perform the following steps:
1) Press and hold PAUSE, and press REC to engage the
RECORD PAUSE mode.
The VCR then automatically checks the condition of
the tape and, after about 7 seconds, re-enters RECORD
PAUSE.
2) Press PLAY to start recording.
If you want to bypass Active Video Calibration and start
recording right away, set "RECORDING" to "OFF" in step
4 of the Preparation procedure (
