OTHER FEATURES
Index Search
The VCR has a "VMS Index Search System" that
automatically records an index mark on the tape every
time you start a recording.
During playback you can locate the program you want to
play by the number of index marks or by scanning. The
VCR will search forward or reverse from the location you
are on the tape.
To Search:
1. Press STOP.
2. Press SEARCH on the remote to display the INDEX
SEARCH on-screen display.
3. If you want to search through a certain number of
index marks, press two number buttons to enter the
number of marks you want to search. Press CLEAR on
the remote to correct an entry.
4. Press FORWARD to search forward or REVERSE to
search in reverse. The VCR will locate your index mark
and begin playback. If you did not enter a specific
index number, the VCR will locate the next index mark
and begin playback.
5. Press STOP to end index searching.
Some index marks may be missed by the VCR:
• A mark too close to your location on the tape
• The mark at the beginning of a recorded segment of
five minutes or less
• The first index mark on the tape when you start at the
beginning of the tape
Zero Search
The zero search feature enables the VCR to quickly return
to a counter reading of 0:00:00 anywhere on the tape. This
is especially convenient when you want to repeat a
segment of the tape several times.
1. Go to the beginning of the program you wish to return to.
2. Press INFO twice to display the timer counter on the TV
screen.
