USING TIME SEARCH
Your Model 28 lets you quickly move forward or
backward through recorded material on a tape.
For example, if you recorded three half-hour
programs on a tape and you want to see the
third program, you can set the Model 28 to
quickly move the tape past the first hour of re-
corded material.
Notes:
• You can move through up to 9 hours and 59
minutes of recorded material.
• You cannot view the tape or hear the tape’s
sound while you search it.
1. Press MENU . The main menu appears on
the TV screen.
2. Press 6 on the remote control to select
TIME SEARCH. The TV screen shows
TIME SEARCH , and the hour digit flashes.
3. Use the number keys on the remote control
to enter the desired amount of time you
want to search as h mm. For example, to
search 2 hours and 30 minutes of recorded
material, press
2 , 3 , and 0 .
Notes:
• If you are entering an hour number, do
not precede the number with a 0. If you
are entering a single-digit minute num-
ber, precede it with a 0 — for example,
01 , 02 , etc.
• If you enter an incorrect hour, press ADD/
DELETE to move back to the incorrect
hour, then enter the correct hour. If you
enter an incorrect minute, use the num-
ber buttons to re-enter the minutes.
4. To select the search direction, press F.FWD
or REWIND . The Model 28 searches the
tape in the direction you specified and
stops when it reaches the time you speci-
fied in Step 3.
The search time, displayed under TIME
SEARCH on the TV screen, counts up or
down as the Model 28 continues to search.
When the counter reaches
0:00 , the
Model 28 stops searching and playback
continues.
5. To cancel a time search, press STOP .
USING AUTOMATIC REPEAT
PLAYBACK
Your Model 28 lets you automatically repeat
playback from the beginning to the end of a
tape, or from the beginning to a
blank (unrecord-
ed) portion of a tape.
Note: If the counter memory is activated (see
“Using Counter Return” on Page 25), the tape
automatically stops when the counter returns to
0:00:00 , and automatic repeat does not work.
1. During playback, press MENU . The main
menu appears on the TV screen.
2. Press 7 on the remote control to select
USER’S SET UP . The set up menu
appears on the TV screen.
3. Repeatedly press 3 until ALL appears next
to REPEAT PLAY (to repeat playback
from the beginning to the end of the tape)
or until
BLANK appears (to repeat playback
from the beginning to a blank portion — of
at least 10 seconds in length — on the
tape).
Note: If you previously set RENTAL PLAY
to ON (see “Improving Playback of Older
(Worn)/Damaged Tapes” on Page 27), the
Model 28 might not display
REPEAT
PLAY , ALL , or BLANK .
To cancel automatic repeat playback,
repeatedly press
