Important Safety Precautions

Prior to shipment from the factory, JVC products are strictly inspected to conform with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

Precautions during Servicing

•

1. Locations requiring special caution are denoted by labels and inscriptions on the cabinet, chassis and certain parts of the product. When performing service, be sure to read and comply with these and other cautionary notices appearing in the operation and service manuals.

2. Parts identified by the symbol and shaded ( ) parts are critical for safety. Replace only with specified part numbers.

Note: Parts in this category also include those specified to com-

ply with X-ray emission standards for products using cathode ray tubes and those specified for compliance with various regulations regarding spurious radiation emission.

3. Fuse replacement caution notice. Caution for continued protection against fire hazard. Replace only with same type and rated fuse(s) as specified.

4. Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

1) Wires covered with PVC tubing

2) Double insulated wires

3) High voltage leads

5. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts. Note especially:

1) Insulation Tape 3) Spacers 5) Barrier

2) PVC tubing 4) Insulation sheets for transistors

6. When replacing AC primary side components (transformers, power cords, noise blocking capacitors, etc.) wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.

12. Crimp type wire connector In such cases as when replacing the power transformer in sets where the connections between the power cord and power transformer primary lead wires are performed using crimp type connectors, if replacing the connectors is unavoidable, in order to prevent safety hazards, perform carefully and precisely according to the following steps.

1) Connector part number : E03830-001

2) Required tool : Connector crimping tool of the proper type which

will not damage insulated parts.

3) Replacement procedure

(1) Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a point

close to the connector. Important : Do not reuse a connector (discard it).

cut close to connector

Fig.3

(2) Strip about 15 mm of the insulation from the ends of the

wires. If the wires are stranded, twist the strands to avoid frayed conductors.

15 mm

Fig.1

7. Observe that wires do not contact heat producing parts (heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)

8. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged or pointed parts.

9. When a power cord has been replaced, check that 10-15 kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.

Power cord

Fig.2

10. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.

11. Products using cathode ray tubes (CRTs) In regard to such products, the cathode ray tubes themselves, the high voltage circuits, and related circuits are specified for compliance with recognized codes pertaining to X-ray emission. Consequently, when servicing these products, replace the cathode ray tubes and other parts with only the specified parts. Under no circumstances attempt to modify these circuits. Unauthorized modification can increase the high voltage value and cause X-ray emission from the cathode ray tube.

Fig.4

(3) Align the lengths of the wires to be connected. Insert the

wires fully into the connector.

Metal sleeve

Safety Check after Servicing

•

Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts and wires have been returned to original positions, Afterwards, perform the following tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify compliance with safety standards.

1. Insulation resistance test

Confirm the specified insulation resistance or greater between power cord plug prongs and externally exposed parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). See table 1 below.

2. Dielectric strength test

Confirm specified dielectric strength or greater between power cord plug prongs and exposed accessible parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). See table 1 below.

3. Clearance distance

When replacing primary circuit components, confirm specified clearance distance (d), (d’) between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. See table 1 below.

Fig. 8

4. Leakage current test

Confirm specified or lower leakage current between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). Measuring Method : (Power ON) Insert load Z between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed accessible parts. Use an AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z. See figure 9 and following table 2.

Externally exposed accessible part

Fig. 9

5. Grounding (Class 1 model only)

Confirm specified or lower grounding impedance between earth pin in AC inlet and externally exposed accessible parts (Video in, Video out, Audio in, Audio out or Fixing screw etc.).

Measuring Method:

Connect milli ohm meter between earth pin in AC inlet and exposed accessible parts. See figure 10 and grounding specifications.

on the REC safety board assembly to OFF (by releasing the switch).

(4) Now the desired operation (recording, playback, fast for-

ward, rewind, etc.) is possible in this status (the status shown in Fig.1-4-3).

Notes:

• When performing diagnostics of the tape playback or the recording condition in the "SERVICE POSITION", enter the desired mode before turning the set upside down, and do not change the mode when performing diagnostics while the set is placed upside down. If you

want to switch the mode, turn the set to the normal position (the status shown in Fig.1-4-3).

• In the "SERVICE POSITION", the cassette tabs cannot be detected and recording becomes possible even with a cassette with broken tabs such as the alignment tape. Be very careful not to erase important tapes.

(5) The switch on the REC safety board assembly does not

have to be operated when ejecting a tape. But be sure to turn the set to the normal position before ejecting the tape.

1.5 MECHANISM SERVICE MODE

This model has a unique function to enter the mechanism into every operation mode without loading of any cassette tape. This function is called the “MECHANISM SERVICE MODE”.

1.5.1 How to set the "MECHANISM SERVICE MODE"

(1) Disconnect VCR from AC. (2) Connect TPGND and TP7001 (TEST) on the SW/Display

board assembly with a jump wire. (3) Connect VCR to AC. (4) Press the POWER button. (5) With lock levers Åı on the left and right of the Cassette

holder assembly pulled toward the front, slide the holder

in the same direction as the cassette insertion direction.

(For the positions of lock levers Åı , refer to the “Pro-

cedures for Lowering the Cassette holder assembly” on

page 1-2 of 1.3 DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY METHOD.) (6) The cassette holder lowers and, when the loading has

completed, the mechanism enters the desired mode.

EC1 or EU1: Head clog warning

When the mechanism mode cannot be changed to another mode even when the loading motor has rotated for more than 4 seconds in the loading direction, [E:01] is identified and the power is turned off.

When the mechanism mode cannot be changed to another mode even when the loading motor has rotated for more than 4 seconds in the unloading direction, [E:02] is identified and the power is turned off.

When the take-up reel pulse has not been generated for more than 4 seconds in the capstan rotating mode, [E:03] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off. However, the reel EMG is not detected in STILL/SLOW modes.

When the drum FG pulse has not been input for more than 3 seconds in the drum rotating mode, [E:04] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off.

When the eject operation does not complete in 3 seconds after the start, [E:05] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off. When the cassette insertion operation does not complete in 3 seconds after the start, the cassette is ejected. In addition, when the operation does not complete within 3 seconds after the start, [E:05] is also identified and the power is turned off immediately.

When the capstan FG pulse has not been generated for more than 1 second in the capstan rotating mode, [E:06] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off.However, the capstan EMG is not detected in STILL/SLOW/FF/REW modes.

When short-circuiting of the SW power supply with GND has lasted for 0.5 second or more, [E:07] is identified, all the motors are stopped and the power is turned off.

When DD tilting does not complete in 4 seconds, [E:08] is identified, the tilt motor is stopped and the power is turned off.

When the DD FG pulse is not generated within 2.5 seconds, [E:09] is identified, the tilt motor is stopped and the power is turned off.

When the supply reel pulse has not been generated for more than 10 seconds in the capstan rotating mode, [E:0A] is identified and the cassette is ejected (but the power is not turned off). However, note that the reel EMG is not detected in the SLOW/STILL mode.

Presupposing the presence of the control pulse output in the PLAY mode, when the value obtained by mixing the two V.FM output channels (without regard to the A.FM output) has remained below a certain threshold level for more than 10 seconds, [E:C1] or [E:U1] is identified and recorded in the emergency history. During the period in which a head clog is detected, the FDP and OSD repeat the “3-second warning display” and “7-second noise picture display” alternately.

EMG code : “E:C1” or “E:U1” / FDP : “U:01” / OSD : “Try cleaning tape.” or “Use cleaning cassette.” The head clog warning is reset when the above-mentioned threshold has been exceeded for more than 2 seconds or the mode is changed to another mode than PLAY.

The mechanism is locked in the middle of mode transition.

The mechanism is locked at the loading end due to the encoder position reading error during mode transition.

Power is not supplied to the loading MDA.

The mechanism is locked in the middle of mode transition.

The mechanism is locked at the unloading end due to the encoder position reading error during mode transition.

Power is not supplied to the loading MDA.

The take-up reel pulse is not generated in the FWD transport modes (PLAY/ FWD SEARCH/FF, etc.) because;

1) The idler gear is not meshed with the take-up reel gear;

The idler gear is meshed with the take-up reel gear, but incapable of winding due to too large mechanical load (abnormal tension);

3) The take-up reel sensor does not output the FG pulse.

The supply reel pulse is not generated in the REV transport modes (REV SEARCH/REW, etc.) because;

1) The idler gear is not meshed with the supply reel gear.

2) The idler gear is meshed with the supply reel gear, but incapable of winding due to too large a mechanical load (abnormal tension);

3) The supply reel sensor does not output the FG pulse.

Power is not supplied to the reel sensors.

The drum could not start or the drum rotation has stopped due to too large a load on the tape, because;

1) The tape tension is abnormally high;

The tape is damaged or a foreign object (grease, etc.) adheres to the tape.

The drum FG pulse did not reach the System controller CPU because;

1) The signal circuit is disconnected in the middle;

2) The FG pulse generator (hall device) of the drum is faulty.

The drum control voltage (DRUM CTL V) is not supplied to the MDA.

Power is not supplied to the drum MDA.

The cassette cannot be ejected due to a failure in the drive mechanism of the housing.

When the housing load increases during ejection, the loading motor is stopped because of lack of headroom in its drive torque.

Housing load increasing factors: Temperature environment (low temperature, etc.), mechanism wear or failure.

The sensor/switch for detecting the end of ejection are not functioning normally.

The loading motor drive voltage is lower than specified or power is not supplied to the motor (MDA).

When the user attempted to eject a cassette, a foreign object (or perhaps the user's hand) was caught in the opening of the housing.

The capstan could not start or the capstan rotation has stopped due to too large a load on the tape, because;

1) The tape tension is abnormally high (mechanical lock);

2) The tape is damaged or a foreign object (grease, etc.) is adhered to the

tape (occurrence of tape entangling, etc.).

The capstan FG pulse did not reach the System controller CPU because;

1) The signal circuit is disconnected in the middle;

2) The FG pulse generator (MR device) of the capstans is faulty.

The capstan control voltage (CAPSTAN CTL V) is not supplied to the MDA.

Power is not supplied to the capstan MDA.

The SW 5 V power supply circuit is shorted with GND.

The SW 12 V power supply circuit is shorted with GND.

1 The absolute value sensor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.) 2 The pull-up resistor at the absolute sensor output is defective. (The soldered parts

have separated.)

3 Contact failure or soldering failure of the pins of the connector (board-to-board) to the

absolute value sensor.

The absolute value sensor data is not sent to the System Controller CPU.

1 The FG sensor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.) 2 The pull-up resistor at the FG sensor output is defective. (The soldered parts have

separated.)

3 Contact failure or soldering failure of the pins of the connector (board-to-board) to the FG sensor. 4 The power to the sensor is not supplied. (Connection failure/soldering failure) 5 The FG pulse is not sent to the System Controller CPU. 6

The tilt motor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)

7 The drive power to the tilt motor is not supplied. (Connection failure/soldering failure) 8 The tilt motor drive MDA - IC is defective. 9 Auto-recovery of the DD tilting cannot take place due to overrun.

The supply reel pulse is not generated in the FWD transport mode (PLAY/ FWD SEARCH/FF, etc.) because;

1) PLAY/FWD or SEARCH/FF is started while the tape in the inserted cas-

sette is cut in the middle;

2) A mechanical factor caused tape slack inside and outside the supply

reel side of the cassette shell. In this case, the supply reel will not rotate until the tape slack is removed by the FWD transport, so the pulse is not generated until then;

3) The FG pulse output from the supply reel sensor is absent.

The take-up reel pulse is not generated in the REV transport mode (REV SEARCH/REW, etc.).

1) REV SEARCH/REW is started when the tape in the inserted cassette

has been cut in the middle;

2) A mechanical factor caused tape slack inside and outside the take-up

reel side of the cassette shell. In this case, the supply reel will not rotate until the tape slack is removed by the REV transport, so the pulse will not be generated until that time;

3) The FG pulse output from the take-up reel sensor is absent.

The power to a reel sensor is not supplied.

1.8 SERVICING THE VIDEO NAVIGATION FUNCTION

The video navigation function is to record data to the built-in FLASH memory of the VCR. At the same time a reference number is wrote on the cassette tape for control purposes. Therefore, the FLASH memory and the cassette tape (selfrecorded tape) form a related pair. If the FLASH memory or the board assembly (in which the FLASH memory is included) is replaced, the video navigation function will not operate. In this case, it is required to copy the video navigation data in the original FLASH memory into the FLASH memory of the unit which the navigation function is available.

1.8.1 Copying the video navigation data

Notes:

• When copying the video navigation data, initialization of the FLASH memory of the master unit is required.

• Connect the JLIP cable to each “JLIP terminal” of the VCR. JLIP Cable (Parts No. : QAM0129-001 or PEAC0453)

SECTION 2

MECHANISM ADJUSTMENT

2.1 BEFORE STARTING REPAIR AND ADJUSTMENT

2.1.1 Precautions

(1) Unplug the power cable of the main unit before using your

soldering iron.

(2) Take care not to cause any damage to the conductor

wires when plugging and unplugging the connectors.

(3) Do not randomly handle the parts without identifying

where the trouble is.

(4) Exercise enough care not to damage the lugs, etc. dur-

ing the repair work.

(5) When installing the front panel assembly, be sure to hook

the lug on the back side of the cassette door to the door opener of the cassette holder. If this operation is neglected it will not be possible to remove the cassette when ejecting because the housing door cannot be opened.

2.1.2 Checking for Proper Mechanical Operations

Enter the mechanism service mode when you want to operate the mechanism when no cassette is loaded. (See 1.5 MECHANISM SERVICE MODE.)

2.1.3 Manually Removing the Cassette Tape

1. In case of electrical failures

If you cannot remove the cassette tape which is loaded because of any electrical failure, manually remove it by taking the following steps.

(1) Unplug the power cable and remove the top cover,

bracket and front panel assembly. (See 1.3 DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY METHOD.)

(2) Unload the cassette by manually turning the loading mo-

tor of the mechanism assembly toward the front. In doing so, hold the tape by the hand to keep the slack away from any grease. (See Fig.2-1-3a.)

(3) Bring the pole base assembly (supply or take-up side) to

a pause when it reaches the position where it is hidden behind the cassette tape.

(4) Move the top guide toward the drum while holding down

the lug A of the bracket retaining the top guide. Likewise hold part B down and remove the top guide. Section C of the top guide is then brought under the cassette lid. Then remove the top guide by pressing the whole cassette tape down. (See Fig.2-1-3b.)

(5) Remove the cassette tape by holding both the slackened

tape and the cassette lid.

(6) Take up the slack of the tape into the cassette. This com-

pletes removal of the cassette tape.

If you cannot remove the cassette tape which is loaded because of any mechanical failure, manually remove it by taking the following steps.

(1) Unplug the power cable and remove the top cover, front

panel assembly and others so that the mechanism assembly is visible. (See 1.3 DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY METHOD.)

(2) While keeping the tension arm assembly of the mecha-

nism assembly free from tension, pull the tape on the pole base assembly (supply or take-up side) out of the guide roller. (See Fig.2-1-3c.)

(3) Take the spring of the pinch roller arm assembly off the

hook of the press lever assembly, and detach it from the tape. (See Fig.2-1-3d.)

(4) In the same way as in the electrical failure instructions in

2.1.3-1(4), remove the top guide.

(5) Raise the cassette tape cover. By keeping it in that posi-

tion, draw out the cassette tape case from the cassette holder and take out the tape.

(6) By hanging the pinch roller arm assembly spring back

on the hook, take up the slack of the tape into the cassette.

2.1.5 Maintenance and Inspection

1. Location of major mechanical parts

In this chapter, the two mechanism speeds are described by comparing the speeds of the standard type and the high-speed FF/REW type. It is possible to distinguish between these two types of mechanism by the diameters of their capstan pulleys. The capstan pulley diameter for the standard type is approx. 32 mm. The capstan pulley diameter for the high-speed FF/REW type is approx. 43 mm. For information on the different parts used in the two mechanism types, please refer to the “Replacement of major parts”.

2. Cleaning

Regular cleaning of the transport system parts is desirable but practically impossible. So make it a rule to carry out cleaning of the tape transport system whenever the machine is serviced. When the video head, tape guide and/or brush get soiled, the playback picture may appear inferior or at worst disappear, resulting in possible tape damage.

(1) When cleaning the upper drum (especially the video

head), soak a piece of closely woven cloth or Kimu-wipe with alcohol and while holding the cloth onto the upper drum by the fingers, turn the upper drum counterclockwise.

Note:

• Absolutely avoid sweeping the upper drum vertically as this will cause damage to the video head.

(2) To clean the parts of the tape transport system other than

the upper drum, use a piece of closely woven cloth or a cotton swab soaked with alcohol.

(3) After cleaning, make sure that the cleaned parts are com-

pletely dry before using the video tape.

3. Lubrication

With no need for periodical lubrication, you have only to lubricate new parts after replacement. If any oil or grease on contact parts is soiled, wipe it off and newly lubricate the parts.

Note:

• See the “mechanism assembly” diagram of the parts list for the lubricating or greasing spots, and for the types of oil or grease to be used.

4. Suggested servicing schedule for main components

The following table indicates the suggested period for such service measures as cleaning,lubrication and replacement. In practice, the indicated periods will vary widely according to environmental and usage conditions.However, the indicated components should be inspected when a set is brought for service and the maintenance work performed if necessary. Also note that rubber parts may deform in time,even if the set is not used.

2.2 REPLACEMENT OF MAJOR PARTS

2.2.1 Before Starting Disassembling (Phase matching between mechanical parts)

The mechanism of this unit is closely linked with the rotary encoder and system controller circuits. Since the system controller detects the status of mechanical operation in response to phases of the rotary encoder (internal switch positions), the mechanism may not operate properly unless such parts as the rotary encoder, control plate, loading arm gear, control cam, cassette gear, limit gear, relay gear and drive gear are installed in their correct positions. Especially, this model is not provided with any cassette housing assembly, so that cassette loading and unloading must be accomplished by operation of the cassette holder assembly. The latter is in turn driven by such parts as the drive gear, relay gear and limit gear. Exercise enough care, therefore, to have the phases of all this gear matching one another. (For information on phase matching of the mechanism, see the instructions on how to install individual parts.) This unit is provided with a mechanism assembly mode. It is therefore necessary to enter this mode for assembling and disassembling procedures. This mode is usually not in use, manually set it when it is required.

2.2.3 Cassette Holder Assembly

1. How to remove

(1) Remove the guide rail and roller cam assembly. (See

Fig.2-2-3a.) (3 lugs on the guide rail and one lug on the roller cam assembly)

2. How to install (Centering the mounting position)

When the capstan motor has once been removed and then reinstalled out of the initial correct position in the rotational direction, the capstan motor current may be unstable during operation in high or low temperatures. This may result in greater Wow & Flutter and occasionally in power breakdown because of current over - load. Install the capstan motor while following the procedure given below. (The capstan motor is centrally located when the unit is shipped from the factory.)

(1) Provisionally tighten the three screws (A) securing the

capstan motor.

(2) Install the mechanism assembly to which the capstan

motor is provisionally fastened on the bottom chassis which incorporates the Main board assembly. (No need to tighten the screws for mounting the mechanism.) Make sure that all the connectors for the mechanism assembly and the Main board assembly are correctly installed as indicated in Fig. 2-2-8b.

(3) Making sure that the connector for the capstan motor is

correctly mounted, and securely tighten the three screws (A).

Note:

• When the capstan motor has been replaced with a new one, perform recording in the EP(or LP) mode for at least 2 minutes at normal temperatures immediately before starting the FF/REW or SEARCH operations (Aging).

2.2.9 Pole Base Assembly (supply or take-up side)

1. How to remove

(1) Remove the UV catcher 2 on the removal side by loos-

ening the screw (A).

(2) Remove the pole base assembly on the supply side from

the mechanism assembly by loosening the screw (B) on the mechanism assembly back side and sliding the pole base assembly toward the UV catcher 2.

(3) As for the pole base assembly on the take-up side, turn

the pulley of the loading motor to lower the cassette holder because the screw (B) is hidden under the control plate. (See the “Procedures for Lowering the Cassette holder assembly” of 1.3 DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY METHOD.) Further turn the motor pulley to move the cassette holder until the screw (B) is no longer under the control plate (in the half-loading position). Then remove it as done for the supply side by removing the screw (B).

Note:

• After reinstalling the Pole base assembly and the UV catcher2, be sure to perform compatibility adjustment.

2.3 COMPATIBILITY ADJUSTMENT

Notes:

• Although compatibility adjustment is very important, it is not necessary to perform this as part of the normal servicing work. It will be required when you have replaced the audio control head, drum assembly or any part of the tape transport system.

• To avoid any damage to the alignment tape while performing the compatibility adjustment, get a separate cassette tape (for recording and play back) ready to be used for checking the initial tape running behavior.

• Unless otherwise specified, all measuring points and adjustment parts are located on the Main board.

• When using the Jig RCU, set its custom code to match the custom code of the VCR.

(5) Reduce the V.PB FM waveform while pressing the chan-

nel buttons (+, –) during playback. If a drop in level is found on the left side, turn the guide roller of the pole base assembly (supply side) with the roller driver to make the V.PB FM waveform linear. If a drop in level is on the right side, likewise turn the guide roller of the pole base assembly (take-up side) with the roller driver to make it linear. (See Fig. 2-3-1c.)

(6) Make sure that the V.PB FM waveform varies in parallel

and linearly with the tracking operation again. When required, perform fine-adjustment of the guide roller of the pole base assembly (supply or take-up side).

(7) Unload the cassette tape once, play back the alignment

tape (A1) again and confirm the V.PB FM waveform.

(8) After adjustment, confirm that the tape wrinkling does not

occur at the roller upper or lower limits. (See Fig. 2-31d.)

[Perform adjustment step (9) only for the models

equipped with SP mode and EP (or LP) mode.]

ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENT

3.1 PRECAUTION

The following adjustment procedures are not only necessary after replacement of consumable mechanical parts or board assemblies, but are also provided as references to be referred to when servicing the electrical circuitry. In case of trouble with the electrical circuitry, always begin a service by identifying the defective points by using the measuring instruments as described in the following electrical adjustment procedures. After this, proceed to the repair, replacement and/or adjustment. If the required measuring instruments are not available in the field, do not change the adjustment parts (variable resistor, etc.) carelessly.

3.1.1 Required test equipments

• Color (colour) television or monitor

• Oscilloscope: wide-band, dual-trace, triggered delayed

sweep

• Frequency counter

• Audio level meter

• Signal generator: RF / IF sweep / marker

• Signal generator: stairstep, color (colour) bar [NTSC]

3.1.4 Switch settings and standard precautions

The SW settings of the VCR and the standard precautions for the electrical adjustments are as follows.

• When using the Jig RCU, set its custom code to match the custom code of the VCR.

3.1.5 EVR Adjustment

Some of the electrical adjustments require the adjustment performed by the EVR system. The Main board assembly have EEPROMs for storing the EVR adjustment data and user setups.

Notes:

• In the EVR adjustment mode, the value is varied with the channel buttons (+, –). The adjusted data is stored when the setting mode changes (from PB to STOP, when the tape speed is changed, etc.). Take care to identify the current mode of each adjustment item when making an adjustment.

• When changing the address setting in the EVR adjustment mode, use the Jig RCU or the remote controller having numeric keypad with which a numeric code can be directly input. The remote control code of the Jig RCU corresponds to each of the digit keys on the remote controller as follows.

Digit-key 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Code 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29

• As the counter indication and remaining tape indication are not displayed FDP during the EVR adjustment mode, check them on the TV monitor screen.

• When performing the EVR adjustment, confirm that the FDP indication is changed to the EVR mode, as shown below.
