4-1 Registering and
Storing Menu Settings
The operating conditions of the VTR are set using the
menu operation section on the lower control panel.
Menu items are divided among eight different menus
(HOME, TC, VIDEO, AUDIO, CUE, PF1, PF2, SET UP).
You can register any frequently used items to the HOME,
TC, VIDEO, AUDIO, PF1, and PF2 menu screens. By
registering the necessary items in advance, setting
operations are made quicker. The contents of the eight
VTR memory banks can, in turn, be stored on a memory
stick for later recall.

This menu contains items that specify the initial operating
