When Recording Over the Same Location on a Tape:
• The originally recorded programme is deleted from the list.
• Programme contents starting near the start and end of the
newly recorded programme (within 10 minutes before the
start and after the end of the newly recorded programme) is
also erased.
(Although old programme contents are also similarly erased
in the case of ordinary recording, the newly recorded
programme is not registered in the list.)
To Demonstrate the Jet Navigator Function
Keep [NAVI] (4) pressed for more than 5 seconds without
inserting a cassette tape.
To Check the Recorded Programming Data
(Time Stamp Function)
When playback starts after searching
with Jet Navigator function or index
search function, recorded
programming data (called Time
Stamp) appears on the TV screen for
approx. 5 seconds.
Preparation
• Display the VCR picture on the TV.
Note:
• Time Stamp does not appear if the beginning of the Jet
Navigator data is not recorded 10 minutes before and after
the current tape position even when index signals are
recorded.
To Find the Beginning of Each Recording
(VHS Index Search System)
This VCR automatically records special index signals on the
tape every time a recording is started. The Index search
function makes use of these index signals to let you find the
beginning of a desired programme quickly and easily.
Index signals are automatically recorded in the following
cases:
• When you start a recording by pressing [REC]
(27) or [REC/
OTR] (41).
• When a timer recording starts.
• When you press [REC]
(27) on the remote control during
recording.
Conditions for correct operation of the Index search
function:
• The VCR must be in the stop mode or in the playback mode.
• Each programme recorded on the tape must be at least
5 minutes long.
Preparations
• Display the VCR picture on the TV.
• Insert a recorded video cassette.
Operation
1 Press [INDEX]
(30) (that corresponds to the direction
from the current tape position in which the desired
programme is located on the tape) to start the index
search.
For example, if you want to search for the 2nd
recorded programme in forward direction, press
[INDEX]
(30) ( L) twice.
• The VCR fast-forwards or rewinds the tape and searches
for the specified index signal (the beginning of the desired
recorded programme).
When it is found, playback starts automatically.
To Cancel the Index Search or to Stop Playback:
Press [Stop]
(9).
Notes:
• Searching in either direction is possible up to the 20th index
signal.
• If you press either of [INDEX] (30) too many times, simply
press the other [INDEX] (30) (indicating the opposite
direction) to correct it. In this way, you can reduce the
displayed figure down to 1.
• The figure on the VCR display decreases by 1 every time an
index signal is located.
