Recording Check function
Pressing the [REC CHECK] button during recording allows you
to check the status of the recording in progress.  When
activated via the corresponding function menu switch, the built-
in head cleaner automatically cleans the heads whenever
inferior picture quality is detected during Recording Check.
After cleaning, the Recording Check operation is executed
again automatically (Auto Recording Check function).

40-hour long-time recording with a 160-minute tape
Recording times are selectable from 8 hours (EP mode) and
24/40 hours (Timelapse mode). Monitor image recording for up
to 40 hours is possible with a 160-minute tape.

5

Audio monitoring
Audio signals can be recorded in the 24-hour/40-hour
Timelapse mode, as well as in the conventional 8-hour mode.
This strengthens surveillance capabilities by providing both
audio and video information.

5

Alarm recording function
When an alarm signal is input in the Timelapse Record mode,
the 8-hour (EP) mode is automatically engaged.  Alarm
recording time can be selected from 5, 15, 30, 60, 120, or 180
sec., to tape end or set manually.

      An index code is automatically recorded when alarm recording

starts. Used as an alarm cue signal, this allows quick access to
alarm recording points with the Index Search function.

5

Sensor recording
Whenever an alarm signal is input in the Stop mode, the
Record mode is automatically engaged.

5

Time/date generator
Superimposes the year, month, date, minute and second on
the image during recording.  Also allows you to use the menu
screen to display the number of alarms, alarm time, and the
number of the power failures.

5

Timer recording function
Two types of timer recording are available:  based on the date
(up to 8 programs) or based on the day of the week.

1-1 Major Features

1  INTRODUCTION

1-2 Periodical Maintenance

This VCR incorporates precision mechanical parts which will collect dirt over time and ultimately deteriorate and wear out.
Over long periods of use, dirt and dust accumulates on the heads, drums and tape transport mechanisms.  Dust which
penetrates the VCR (especially during outdoor use) also promotes the wear and deterioration of mechanical parts by causing
poor contact between tape and heads. This also prevents the VCR from maintaining video and audio quality at high levels.  To
prevent wear and deterioration, clean the heads regularly using a head cleaning tape.  However, because a head cleaning
tape alone cannot clean the entire tape transport mechanism, this should also be inspected periodically to prevent any
problems that could result from a sudden failure.

As replacement and adjustment of parts require advanced skills and specialized equipment, please contact the person in
charge of professional video equipment at your nearest JVC-authorized service agent for servicing.

Monitoring Usage Time

Periodic Maintenance

The total operation time reached by an ordinary home VCR
in 5 or 6 years may be reached by a professional VCR in
as few as 5 or 6 months.  Therefore, it is important that the
total hours of operation be carefully monitored.  An hour
meter in the on-screen display (see page 16) shows the
accumulated time. In the chart below, the hours
accumulated in each month are shown in relation to the
number of hours used per day.  Times shown inside
shaded area indicate that maintenance should be
performed.

Check or replace the following mechanical parts according
to the running time.
