Remaining tape display

The remaining tape time is displayed using 7 segments.
The remaining tape time indicated by each segment is set to 3 minutes or 5
minutes using TAPE REMAIN/∫ on the VTR MENU “BATTERY/TAPE”
screen. Each time the number of minutes set for the segments elapses, one
segment is cleared.

If a battery with a digital display (% display) is used, all 7 segments up
to the “F” position light when the 70% or more of the battery charge
remains.
When there is less than 70% of the battery charge remaining, the
segments go out one by one in sequence every time the remaining
charge drops by 10%. It is also possible to set all 7 segments to light at
a 100% battery charge by selecting 100% as the setting for BATT
REMAIN FULL on the <BATTERY/TAPE> screen of the VTR menu.
