48 GO VIDEO REFERENCE GUIDE
On Screen
Display
The On Screen Display contains information about the
status (e.g. Play, Stop, Rewind) of each deck, the Record
Source for the VHS deck, the TV View (what you are seeing
on the TV screen), and the date and time.
The On Screen Display appears on your screen automati-
cally when you turn the power on, when you press a deck
function key (such as Play, Rewind, etc.), and when you
change channels or select a TV View source. This automatic
On Screen Display will disappear after a few seconds.
You also can see the On Screen Display by pressing the
DISPLAY key on the remote control. If you do this, the On
Screen Display will remain on the screen until you press
DISPLAY again. The On Screen Display will toggle back and
forth between the Time/Date and the Source screens. Press
DISPLAY once to turn on the On Screen Display with Date and
Time, a second time to turn this display off, and a third time
to turn on the On Screen Display with Source.
If you don’t want the On-Screen Display to come on auto-
matically, you can set the DISPLAY MODE in the DISPLAY
MENU (in the AMERICHROME COPY MENU) to OFF. You
can also set the DISPLAY MODE to TAPE if you don’t want
to see the TV VIEW and CH information, or to TUNER if
you don’t want to see the Deck Status information.
The On Screen Display has five basic parts:
Date/Time This indicator displays the current Date and
Time. The Date/Time display alternates with
the Source display.
SOURCE For the VHS deck, the Source indicator shows
the Source for recording onto a VHS tape (you
could record from an 8mm tape, from a TV
channel, or from Line 1 or Line 2). In other
words, if TV View is set to VHS, but no VHS
tape is playing, and the Source for the VHS
deck is the Tuner, then you will see the
Tuner on your TV screen. The Source display
alternates with the Date/Time display.
Note:
The Source for the 8mm deck
will always be the channel
number that is tuned in.
Note:
The On Screen Display is not
available during some Special
Playback Modes.
