Combines direct drive cylinder and capstan motors
with a precision digital servo control to produce
excellent special effects reproduction– Still, Slow, and
with the appropriate remote control, Frame Advance
and Variable Slow Motion–in both SP and SLP speeds.
DIGITAL AUTO TRACKING SYSTEM
When tape
playback begins, this feature automatically seeks the
optimum tracking position in the tracking range, and
the optimum audio signal tracking position for clearest
picture and sound from videotapes. Controls are
provided on the remote transmitter to give you manual
control should tracking adjustments be necessary.
AUTOMATIC CHANNEL SETUP
Activating this
feature allows the VCR tuner to scan through
television frequencies, automatically storing active
broadcast channels into memory.Then, only active
channels programmed into memory are tuned, using
the channel up/down buttons on either the remote
or front panel of the VCR. Automatic channel preset
can be repeated whenever desired, should new
channels become available. Channels can be manually
added or deleted.
181-CHANNEL FS TUNING
The digital quartz
tuner is capable of receiving up to 181 channels,
including UHF,VHF, and 113 cable channels, without
the inconvenience and expense of a cable company
decoder/converter (on non-scrambled cable systems).
Channel tuning is by random access with the remote
control transmitter or scan tuning up and down by
remote or at the set.
CLOCK/FUNCTION DISPLAY
Continuously alerts the
user to all important recording and playback conditions,
correct time, counter position, tape speed, channel
number, etc.When the VCR is turned off, the time
display automatically dims, to make it less distracting.
BILINGUAL (ENGLISH/SPANISH) ON-SCREEN
FUNCTION DISPLAY
Indicates record/playback
functions, channel number, clock setting, date, counter,
programming, one-touch record, and record standby,
keeping the user alerted to the status of all features
in a heads up, on-screen display.
p i c t u r e :
ON-SCREEN, REAL-TIME COUNTER
Unlike the
0000 to 9999 tape counters found in standard VCRs,
this unit incorporates a linear, real-time counter which
shows elapsed recording and/or playback time in
hours, minutes, and seconds.
TIMER/PROGRAMMER BACKUP SYSTEM
Retains
timer programming information for up to one full
minute in the event of momentary power interruptions.
REPEAT PLAY
When the VCR recognizes no
recorded signal or reaches the end of a tape with the
Repeat Play control activated, it will automatically
rewind to the beginning and enter the Play mode
again. Repeat Play can be discontinued by touching the
button a second time or by changing operation mode.
QUICK START MECHANISM
Quickly and
effortlessly switches the tape mechanism from Stop to
Play in only one second, instead of the approximately
5 1/4 seconds of older models.
AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT JACKS
Connect
your VCR to the direct audio and video inputs of a
television receiver or monitor equipped with input
jacks, for better picture and sound quality during tape
playback. Jacks also allow a second VCR to be
connected for editing and/or duplicating personally
recorded, non-copyrighted videotapes.
15X FORWARD/REVERSE LATCHING SEARCH
Search in forward or reverse mode at 15 times
normal playing speed in SLP.The Latching Search
feature provides continuous forward or reverse
search with a single touch of the control. A second
touch stops the search operation and returns the unit
to the Play mode.
VCR PLUS+™ PROGRAMMING
Simplifies
VCR programming by allowing you to simply
enter PlusCode
®
programming numbers found
in many published television listings.When
recording begins, your VCR automatically selects
the proper TV channel and program length.
Backup memory logic retains the cable channel
guide map indefinitely even during a power
failure or when the VCR is disconnected from
its power source.
ONE-TOUCH RECORD
Record up to eight
hours or to the end of the tape with the touch
of a single button. Each touch of the OTR button
adds 30 minutes of additional recording time.
8-EVENT/1 YEAR SMART PROGRAMMING
Program your VCR for unattended recording of
up to eight separate programs over a full 365-
day period. No manual setting, adjusting, or
programming of the calendar function is required.
REMOTE CONTROL ON-SCREEN MENU
PROGRAMMING
Program by remote control
for unattended recording, with programming
instructions on-screen for visual verification.
On-screen menus lead you through normal,
daily, or weekly programming by program
number, channel to be recorded, start and stop
times, speed, and date of recording by day,
month, and year. Pushing the CLEAR button
allows you to go back and reprogram over
mistakes, and pushing the MENU button at the
end of programming verifies that instructions
are locked into memory.
