The time counter shows actual time elapsed when recording or playing back a
tape. It quickly locates the end of recorded segments.

To Use Time Counter
For example, you recorded a 10-minute
segment. Later, you want to locate the
end of your recording. Insert the cassette
and fast-forward the tape until the time
counter reads “0:10:00”.
Memory-Stop Feature
The memory-stop feature helps you
locate a certain point on the tape. When
memory stop is turned on, the tape will
stop automatically during rewind or fast
forward when the time counter reaches
“0:00:00M”.
1. Press DISPLAY on the remote to turn
on memory stop. An “M” appears
behind the time counter.
Note: During playback or play pause, you
can also press DISPLAY on the camcorder
to turn memory stop on and off.
2. Locate the place on the tape you want
to return to and press RESET on the
remote to set the time counter to
“0:00:00M”.
3. Continue to record or play the tape.
When you want to return to the place
you marked, press the thumb trigger on
the camcorder (or PAUSE/RECORD
on the remote) to stop recording or the
STOP button to stop playing back the
tape.
4. Make sure the CAM/OFF/VCR switch
is in VCR, and then press REW. The
tape will rewind to the time counter
reading of “0:00:00M”.
Notes: If you rewind the tape farther back
than a counter reading of “0:00:00”, a minus
will appear in front of the counter.
The time counter is automatically reset to
“0:00:00” each time a cassette is inserted.
