Receiving NICAM Stereo
And Bilingual Programmes
Your recorder is equipped with a Digital stereo sound decoder
(NICAM), making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts
possible.
When the recorder is tuned to a different station, the type of
broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV screen for
a few seconds.
Tape Position Indicator
The tape position indicator
appears on screen when, from
the Stop mode, you press FF,
REW or perform an Index
Search. The position of “5” in
relation to “0” (beginning) or
“+” (end) shows you where you
are on the tape.
”O.S.D.” (
੬
pg. 36) must be
set to “ON”, or the indicator
will not appear.
NOTE:
Depending on the type of tape used, there may be times when
the indication is not correct.

Remote A/B Code Switching
The remote control is capable of controlling two JVC video
recorders independently; one set to respond to the remote
control’s A code control signals and another set to respond to B
code control signals. The remote control is preset to send A
code signals because your video recorder is initially set to
respond to A code signals. You can easily modify your video
recorder to respond to B code signals.
