The VCR automatically stops recording when the tape reaches the end or
when the other equipment stops transmitting the video/audio signals.
Notes
• Some equipment automatically turn off in a certain time if you do not operate it
after it turns on with the timer. In this case the Synchronised Recording also stops
automatically.
• The Synchronised Recording starts and stops according to the signals from the
connected equipment. Refer also to the instruction manual of the connected
equipment for its timer function.
• Some equipment keeps transmitting signals even though the power is off. In this
case, the Synchronised Recording feature does not work because the VCR will not
be able to know when to start recording. To record the programme, set the timer on
the VCR. If you use a satellite tuner or a cable TV decoder, make sure to turn it on.
For details, see “Setting the timer manually”.
• If the settings for timer recording and Synchronised Recording overlap, the
programme that starts first has priority and the second programme starts recording
only after the first programme has finished.
• (For SLV-EZ77AS/EZ77NZ only)
To record NTSC signals, set the tape speed to SP or EP. To set to the EP mode,
display “LP” in the tape speed position.
