feature allows the VCR tuner to scan through television frequencies, automatically storing active broadcast channels into memory.Then,only active channels programmed into memory are tuned, using the CHANNEL UP/DOWN buttons on either the remote or front panel of the VCR.Automatic channel preset can be repeated whenever desired, should new channels become available. Channels can be manually added or deleted.

181-CHANNEL FS TUNING The digital quartz

tuner is capable of receiving up to 181 channels, including UHF,VHF, and 113 cable channels, without the inconvenience and expense of a cable company decoder/converter (on non-scrambled cable systems).

LED FUNCTION INDICATORS Alerts the user to the

status of all important recording and playback features with simple, easily recognized, international symbols.

BILINGUAL (ENGLISH/SPANISH) ON-SCREEN FUNCTION DISPLAY Indicates record/playback

functions, channel number, clock setting, date, counter, programming, one-touch record, and record standby, keeping the user alerted to the status of all features in a heads up, on-screen display.

ON-SCREEN, REAL-TIME COUNTER Unlike the

0000 to 9999 tape counters found in standard VCRs, this unit incorporates a linear, real-time counter which shows elapsed recording and/or playback time in hours, minutes, and seconds.

TIMER/PROGRAMMER BACKUP SYSTEM Retains

timer programming information for up to one full minute in the event of momentary power interruptions.

TAPE REMAINING TIME COUNTER No more

guessing! This menu-driven, on-screen display provides a visual indication of recording time remaining on the videocassette currently in use.

convenience:

JUST-IN-TIME RECORDING Ends the frustration

of timed recordings that are too long for the tape in the cassette. During a timer recording in the SP mode, this feature calculates the amount of tape remaining and automatically adjusts tape speed from SP to SLP in an effort to complete the recording before you run out of tape.

REPEAT PLAY When the VCR recognizes no

recorded signal or reaches the end of a tape with the Repeat Play control activated,it will automatically rewind to the beginning and enter the Play mode again. Repeat Play can be discontinued by touching the button a second time or by changing operation mode.

QUICK START MECHANISM Quickly and

effortlessly switches the tape mechanism from Stop to Play in only one second, instead of the approximately 5 1/4 seconds of older models.

AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT JACKS Connect

your VCR to the direct audio and video inputs of a television receiver or monitor equipped with input jacks for better picture and sound quality during tape playback. Jacks also allow a second VCR to be connected for editing and/or duplicating personally recorded, non-copyrighted videotapes.

VARIABLE SLOW MOTION View SP or SLP video

recordings in slow motion in both forward and reverse modes. Slow motion speed can be adjusted from 1/5th to 1/60th normal speed in either direction.

15X FORWARD/REVERSE LATCHING SEARCH

Search in forward or reverse mode at 15 times normal playing speed in SLP, and 5 times normal in SP. The Latching Search feature provides continuous forward or reverse search with a single touch of the control.A second touch stops the search operation and returns the unit to the Play mode.

BLANK TAPE SEARCH Automatically searches for

the beginning of the unused portion of a videotape so you can start a new recording without erasing other recorded material. Record Search handles a last minute decision to record with ease.

ONE-TOUCH RECORD Record up to eight

hours or to the end of the tape with the touch of a single button. Each touch of the OTR button adds 30 minutes of additional recording time.

7-EVENT/1 YEAR SMART PROGRAMMING

REMOTE CONTROL ON-SCREEN MENU PROGRAMMING Program by remote control

for unattended recording, with programming instructions on-screen for visual verification. On-screen menus lead you through normal, daily, or weekly programming by program number, channel to be recorded, start and stop times, speed, and date of recording by day, month, and year. Pushing the CLEAR button allows you to go back and reprogram over mistakes, and pushing the MENU button at the end of programming verifies that instructions are locked into memory.
