Tape Return Level Control
Adjustable amplifiers allow matching to the vast
majority of video cameras and other recording equipment for monitoring tape confidence
heads. Use a small flat blade or phillips screwdriver to adjust the level for the best
match. Many consumer/prosumer DV camcorders may not provide tape confidence
heads. However, tape return is still valuable for checking for bad cable connections etc.
5. Feet
These are supplied to protect the unit from wear for table top use. If you wish
to remove the feet, it is okay to remove the feet and reinstall the existing screws. While
they will screw further into the unit without the feet, they will not damage anything.
