NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption

and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Model 240-020-505 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Model 240-020-505 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Model 240-020-505.

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

● When the DVD recorder is to be moved, ensure that any

DVD it contains is removed in advance.

● If the DVD recorder is not to be used for an extended period of time, please set the POWER switch to OFF to avoid wasting electricity.

 Cleaning the Exterior (with the power off)

Use a soft cloth when cleaning the outside of this DVD recorder. Do not use paint thinners or organic solvents as cleaning agents. Failure to observe these precautions can result in discoloration or melting of exterior surfaces. When stubborn dirt is present, wipe away using a cloth soaked in a dilute neutral solvent.

 Always use the power cord provided with this DVD

recorder.

The usage of a different type of cord or a damaged cord can result in the outbreak of fire or electric shocks.



The power cord supplied with this DVD recorder should not be used with any other device.

 Before connecting this DVD recorder to other

devices, turn those devices off and then carry out setup procedures as described in the corresponding user’s manuals.



The DVD drive unit is an expendable part. Although the service life of the DVD drive unit differs depending on the usage environment of the customer, replacement every 1000 hours as a guide is recommended. (☞ Page 64 “TOTAL RECORDING TIME”)

Precautions Regarding Condensation

Condensation

When cold water is poured into a glass and droplets of water form on its outer surface, this moisture is referred to as “condensation”.

When condensation occurs

Condensation can cause water droplets to adhere to the DVD recorder’s internal lens, thus making normal operation impossible.

Condensation occurs easily in the following situations,

and the appropriate care should be taken.

• When the DVD recorder is moved from a cold location into a warm room.

• When the room containing the DVD is rapidly heated.

• When an air conditioner’s air duct is pointing straight at the DVD recorder.

In situations where it is likely that condensation will occur,

remove any DVD that may be present in this DVD recorder and then turn the power on. As the interior heats up, condensation will be less likely to occur.

Condensation is a principal cause of the inability to play

discs and other similar problems. In this type of situation, allow the DVD recorder to remain inactive with its power on for several hours. If the problem persists after this period of time has elapsed, contact either the store where this DVD recorder was purchased or your Authorized dealer.

Extended Periods of Inactivity

Performance may deteriorate over extended periods of inactivity; for this reason, the power should be turned on and the DVD recorder should be operated at regular intervals.

Compensation for Damaged Content

Stryker accepts no responsibility whatsoever for damages

incurred as a result of an inability to play or record audio and video content in the rare event that this DVD recorder, a disc fails to operate correctly.

It is recommended that discs containing important content

be backed up at regular intervals (i.e., on a yearly basis). Although digital signals do not deteriorate, storage environments can have an effect on a disc’s aging characteristics, and this may result in an inability to play or record.

If a disc should break, there will be no way to recover

data from it.

Proper playback of discs recorded using this DVD recorder

on all devices is not guaranteed.

Introduction

Precautions for Disc Usage

Care of Discs to Ensure High-Quality Playback

Fingerprints, dust, or any other similar contamination of the surface of a disc can lead to distortion in the playback of recorded

Introduction

Component Names & Functions

Details Regarding Discs (continued)

DVD Data Configuration

Generally speaking, the content recorded on a DVD is separated into large units referred to as “titles”. A unique number called a “title number” is assigned to each of these titles, and as a result, any title can be immediately accessed using its title number. In addition, each title can be divided into smaller units referred to as “chapters”. Similarly, a unique number called a “chapter number” is assigned to each of these chapters, and this allows any chapter to be immediately accessed using its chapter number. Each recording made to a disc is stored as a single title. In this, each pressing of the STOP button to leave Recording mode constitutes a different recording. (This action is also referred to as “title closing”.) It is also possible to insert chapter marks to partition titles at the desired points by pressing the REC button while recording. It is possible to automatically add a chapter mark when recording is temporarily stopped by pressing the PAUSE button. (Set from the menu.) In addition, this DVD recorder can also be used to automatically insert chapter marks at regular intervals. (CHAPTER CREATION menu settings will be required for this function.)

Selecting Styles for Title & Chapter Menu

Each recorded DVD contains title and chapter menus that provide information relating to its titles and chapters. Whenever recording is carried out, title numbers, chapter numbers, and thumbnails are automatically generated in order to create the title and chapter menus. Specifically, the frames from the start of individual recordings are used as thumbnails for the title menu. In a similar way, the frames at which chapter marks have been inserted are used as thumbnails for chapter menus. (These thumbnails may be modified later on.) The title menu will become the top thumbnail of the chapter menu. The term “style” is used to refer to a combination of thumbnail characteristics for the title and chapter menus. This DVD recorder can store eight different style types, and the DVD MENU screen is used to indicate which of these types is to be used.

Recording

Recording with the Front Panel

This DVD recorder recording operations can be carried out in two different ways — namely, using the buttons provided on the front panel and using the on-screen REC CONTROL panel. In the latter case, furthermore, recording operations can be performed using a keyboard. The following section, however, will provide a description of recording using the front panel buttons. On a DVD, the section of video recorded between the start of recording and pressing of the STOP button to end recording is stored as a single title, and a unique title number is assigned to each of these sections. A single disc can contain up to 99 different titles. In addition, each title can be separated into a number of different chapters by inserting chapter marks at the appropriate points, and each title can contain up to 99 chapters. Information relating to titles and chapters is stored on a disc in the form of title and chapter menus. When the disc is being played, therefore, the title and chapter menus can be used to access specific sections of stored video and audio.
