On the commander mode
Your camcorder works in the commander mode, VTR 2. Commander modes 1, 2 and 3
are used to distinguish your camcorder from other Sony VCRs to avoid remote control
misoperation. If you use another Sony VCR in the commander mode VTR 2, we
recommend changing the commander mode or covering the sensor of the VCR with
black paper.

The index is automatically marked on a tape when you start recording. If you mark the
index using the INDEX MARK button during recording, “LINE” appears in the CH
column on the INDEX SEARCH screen, and the index is recorded on cassette memory.
