SETTING THE ALARM
The ALARM function allows the user to set the
recording duration, speed to be recorded and tape
recycle for alarm recordings. When a contact clos-
ure occurs at the ALARM IN input, the VCR auto-
matically enters the RECORD mode at the pre-pro-
grammed ALARM recording speed. (See Alarm In,
page 11 for a complete description of the ALARM
sequence.) The ALARM recording duration can
last according to the set value, or until the contact
closure is reopened.
The ALARM recording speed can be pre-pro-
grammed to 02~960 in the NORMAL mode or to
✽
06~
✽
960 in the HD mode.
The checking signal is automatically recorded on
the tape at the beginning of each ALARM record-
ing. Later, you can easily locate the start of each
recording by using these signals when watching a
recorded content. See “ALARM INDEX SEARCH”
on page 26 for details.
The TIME/DATE display is set as follows during
ALARM display.
— ALARM stars (
