Accidental erasure protection function
This function is used to prevent parts already recorded on a tape
from being recorded over. Accidental erasure of pre-recorded
tapes is prevented by positioning the CTL signal rec/play heads as
shown in the figure below so that whether a recording has been
made can be determined by the presence or absence of the CTL
signal. When the REC/PLAY button is pressed with a pre-
recorded tape, the tape runs but the REC button lamp blinks, the
beeping alarm is sounded, and no signals are recorded.
