Auto Repeat
This feature allows the SVT-RA168/RA40 to automatically rewind the
tape when it reaches its end and then re-start recording. This enables
virtually continuous, unattended operation using a single tape. Auto
Repeat is automatically disabled in Alarm Recording mode to safeguard
against recording over an alarm event.
Timer Recording
A built-in timer allows the user
to set the exact recording time
and recording mode in
advance. Timer Recording
can be preset to either weekly
or daily, with holiday and
daylight settings also
available. You can also operate Timer Recording externally via the EXT
TIMER IN terminal. If an alarm occurs, the SVT-RA168/RA40 will initiate
recording as required even if it is in Standby mode.
Alarm Recording
When an alarm signal is received via the ALARM IN terminal, the
recorder will automatically switch to Alarm Recording mode regardless if
it is in Stop or Power-off mode. The Alarm Recording speed and
duration can be set in advance. The SVT-RA168/RA40 recorder can
quickly locate and review recorded alarm segments by using one of its
user friendly functions such as Alarm Scan, Alarm Recall or Alarm
Search. An alarm log of up to 100 entries can be recorded* at the
beginning of the tape so that, even if the tape is ejected, the data is
retained on the tape and can be reviewed when needed.
* This function can be disabled.
Series Recording
Several recorders can be cascaded to extend the total recording time.
By utilizing the Series Recording function, recording can continue without
interruption – as soon as one unit finishes recording, the next unit is
automatically activated.

If the REC CHECK button is pressed when recording in time-lapse mode,
the tape rewinds for approximately three seconds and then plays back
for another four seconds. Upon completion of playback, the recorder
then returns to its original recording mode.
