Notes:
• STEP FWD and HALF LOADING are
provided in the tape protection mode.
Either of these can be set for STOP
and SEARCH STILL.
• The cumulative standby time at the
same tape position increases when
transmitting programs or otherwise
using identical materials repeatedly. In
order to protect the tape, it is
recommended that the shortest
possible setting for the standby time in
the same tape location is used.
• When a DV/DVCAM tape is used,
any setting above 10 seconds will be
treated as 10 seconds.
