TIMER RECORDING/PLAYBACK (
KX-493
only)
For details, refer to the instructions of your audio timer.
No change in any of the other connections between the
deck and amplifier/receiver, etc., is necessary.
With a commercially available audio timer it is possible to
make recordings and initiate playback automatically at
any time.
Make sure that all power cord connections between the
timer and amplifier/receiver are properly made.
1. After turning on the power to each component, select
the station on your tuner which you want to record and
turn down the volume on your amplifier/receiver. This
will have no effect on the recording signal level.
Remember to set the proper recording level.
2. Set the timer to the desired recording start and stop
times. It is advisable to set the timer to begin recording
slightly before and end slightly after the actual
broadcast receiving time to leave some room for later
editing.
3. Set the
TIMER
switch to the REC position.
4. The timer will send power to the amplifier/receiver,
tuner and deck at the preset time, turning all the
components on and initiating the recording.
1. Turn on the amplifier/receiver and adjust the volume
and tone controls.
2. Set the input mode selector of your amplifier/receiver to
the cassette deck function mode.
3. Set the timer to the time you wish to start and stop
playback.
4. Set the
TIMER
switch to the PLAY position.
5. At the preset time, the timer will turn power on to the
amplifier/receiver and cassette deck and begin
playback. It will shut power off at the preset time as
well ending playback.
Note:
Whenever the timer recording/playback is not
intended, make sure to set the
TIMER
switch to OFF
position to prevent the unnecessary recording/playback.
÷
If the
TIMER
switch is set to REC position and the
power is supplied (plugging in the power cord or
automatically supplying the power after power failure,
etc.), the deck automatically enters Rec mode and the
contents of the cassette tape inserted in the deck will
be erased.
