<Note>
The cumulative standby time at the same tape position increases when transmitting
programmes or otherwise using identical materials repeatedly.
This selects the time to be taken until the unit goes into the tape
protection mode when it is left standing in the stop or search still
(JOG/VAR/SHTL) mode. (Unit: s = second, min = minute)
<Notes>
• When a DV/DVCAM tape is used, any setting above 10
seconds will be treated as 10 seconds.
However, the selection screen will show operations up to 2
minutes.
• STEP FWD and HALF LOADING are provided in the tape
protection mode. Either of these can be set for STOP and
SEARCH STILL.
When the time selected as the setup menu item No. 400
(STILL TIMER) setting elapses while the unit is in the search
STILL (JOG/VAR/SHTL) mode, the unit automatically enters
one of the tape protection modes. This menu item is for
selecting which tape protection mode the unit is to enter.
0: STEP FWD.
1: HALF LOADING.
<Note>
When STEP FWD is selected, the unit automatically goes into
the STANDBY OFF (HALF LOADING) mode when the total
time for which the unit is left standing in the still status reaches
30 minutes (or 1 minute for a DV/DVCAM tape).
This selects the drum operation in the STANDBY OFF (HALF
LOADING) mode.
0: The drum stops rotating.
1: The drum continues rotating.
When the time selected as the setup menu item No. 400
(STILL TIMER) setting elapses while the unit is in the STOP
mode, the unit automatically enters one of the tape protection
modes. This menu item is for selecting which tape protection
mode the unit is to enter.
0: STEP FWD
1: HALF LOADING
<Note>
When STEP FWD is selected, the unit is automatically
transferred to the STANDBY OFF (HALF LOADING) mode
when the total time during which it has been left standing in
the STOP mode reaches 30 minutes (or 1 minute for a DV/
DVCAM tape).
