AUDIO MONITOR

 — 

HI-FI

/HI-FI L/HI-FI R/NORM/MIX

This VCR can record two sound tracks simultaneously (normal and 
Hi-Fi) on a Hi-Fi stereo tape. You can select the sound track(s) to 
listen to while playing back a Hi-Fi stereo tape. In addition, when 
playing back a prerecorded tape containing two separate audio 
programs on the Hi-Fi tracks, you can choose either one by 
selecting either “HI-FI L” or “HI-FI R”.

HI-FI

: Normally select this. Hi-Fi sound is played back.

HI-FI L

: Sound on the left Hi-Fi channel is played back.

HI-FI R

: Sound on the right Hi-Fi channel is played back.

NORM

: Sound on the normal track is played back.

MIX

: Both sounds on the Hi-Fi track and normal track are mixed 

and played back.

NOTES:

While playing back a monaural tape, sounds on the normal 
track will be heard regardless of this setting.

If RF connection (

pg. 5) is used for viewing pictures on the 

TV, sound will be monaural even though you select “HI-FI”.

You can also use the 

A.MONITOR

 button on the Remote to 

select the desired monitor sound. (

pg. 9)

S-VHS MODE 

 ON

/OFF

You can determine which recording mode — either S-VHS mode 
or VHS mode — is used for recording on S-VHS tapes.

When this function is set to “ON”

, you can record on S-VHS 

tapes with S-VHS picture quality.

When this function is set to “OFF”

, you can record on S-VHS 

tapes with VHS picture quality.

NOTES:

S-VHS mode allows you to make high quality video recordings 
with horizontal resolution of 400 lines, comparing with the 230 
lines of resolution of conventional VHS recordings. To achieve 
the highest quality picture we recommended to record in S-VHS 
mode. (But remember that a conventional VHS VCR without 
SQPB cannot play back S-VHS tapes recorded in S-VHS mode.)

S-VHS MODE setting does not affect recording on VHS tapes. 
Recording on VHS tapes is always performed in VHS mode 
except when using S-VHS ET mode (

pg. 15).

AV COMPU-LINK

 — 

ON

/OFF

The remote PAUSE/AV COMPULINK terminal on the rear panel 
can be used as either the remote PAUSE terminal or the AV 
COMPULINK terminal.

When this function is set to “ON”,

 you can use this terminal as 

the AV COMPULINK terminal. By connecting other JVC’s AV 
COMPULINK components, including amplifiers (or receivers) 
and televisions, one touch control of the audio and video 
components linked via their AV COMPULINK connectors 
becomes possible.

When this function is set to “OFF”,

 you can use this terminal as 

the remote PAUSE terminal. If your JVC camcorder is equipped 
with the Master Edit Control, you can control the VCR from the 
camcorder. Connect the mini-plug cable (not supplied with this 
VCR) between the remote PAUSE terminal and the EDIT 
connector on the camcorder.

NOTE:

Refer to the other components’ instruction manuals for connection 
and its operations.

FRONT AUX INPUT 

 VIDEO/

S-VIDEO

You have to select which terminal — either VIDEO (composite) or 
S VIDEO (Y/C separate signals) to use as the video input terminal 
on the front panel.
Make sure to select the correct terminal; otherwise, you may fail in 
recording (editing) on this VCR.

REAR AUX INPUT 

 VIDEO/

S-VIDEO

You have to select which terminal — either VIDEO (composite) or 
S VIDEO (Y/C separate signals) to use as the video input terminal 
on the rear panel.
Make sure you select the correct terminal; otherwise, you may fail 
in recording (editing) on this VCR.

Satellite Auto Recording

You can automatically record a satellite program which is timer-
programed on your DBS receiver.

A

Connect a DBS receiver to the AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors on 
the rear panel. You can also connect the cable box if it has a timer.

B

Set timer program on DBS receiver referring to its instruction 
manual.

C

Load a cassette with the record safety tab intact.

D

Press 

SP/EP

 to set the tape speed. The selected tape speed will 

appear on the TV screen.

E

Press 

REC LINK

 for more than 2 seconds. The VCR turns off 

automatically and enter the Satellite Auto Recording standby 
mode (the REC LINK lamp lights). When signals come into the 
VCR from the DBS receiver, the VCR starts recording (the REC 
LINK lamp blinks), and stops recording and goes off when 
signals stop coming in.

NOTES:

Be sure not to turn on the DBS receiver before the program starts 
broadcasting; otherwise, the VCR will start recording when the 
DBS receiver is turned on.

To disengage the Satellite Auto Recording standby mode, press 

REC LINK

 (the REC LINK lamp goes off).

Depending on the type of satellite receiver, Satellite Auto 
Recording may not be compatible.

Child Lock

You can disable the VCR operations. While the VCR is turned on, 
press and hold 

POWER 

1

 on the Remote for more than 

10 seconds. The VCR turns off, “CL” appears for about 5 seconds 
on the display panel.
To release the child lock, press and hold 

POWER 

1

 on the 

Remote until the VCR turns on.

NOTES:

Pressing 

TIMER

 during timer recording, unplugging the AC 

power cord or a power outage also releases the child lock.

When the child lock function is in use, keep the Remote out of 
the children’s reach.

Timer recording programs will be performed even if the child 
lock function activated.
