FOUR-HEAD, DOUBLE AZIMUTH DESIGN

Combines direct drive cylinder and capstan motors with a precision digital servo control to produce excellent special effects reproduction–Still, Slow, and with the appropriate remote control, Frame Advance and Variable Slow Motion–in both SP and SLP speeds.

DIGITAL AUTO TRACKING SYSTEM When tape

playback begins, this feature automatically seeks the optimum tracking position in the tracking range, and the optimum audio signal tracking position for clearest picture and sound from videotapes. Controls are provided on the remote transmitter to give you manual control should tracking adjustments be necessary.

AUTO HEAD CLEANER Gently, automatically

cleans the video head each time a tape is inserted or removed to maintain optimum picture performance during both recording and playback.

AUTOMATIC CHANNEL SETUP Activating this

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). Channel tuning is by random access with the remote control transmitter or scan tuning up and down by remote or at the set.

CLOCK/FUNCTION DISPLAY Continuously alerts

the user to all important recording and playback conditions, correct time, counter position, tape speed, channel number, etc. When the VCR is turned off, the time display automatically dims, to make it less distracting.

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 WITH TIME SEARCH 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. Now you can advance or return to selected tape segments in any time increment you desire.

TIMER/PROGRAMMER BACKUP SYSTEM Retains

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

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.

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.

HI-FI STEREO SOUND WITH BUILT-IN MTS/SAP DECODER Record stereo

videotapes from stereo sound sources and play back pre-recorded hi-fi stereo tapes in hi-fi stereo sound–with an excellent 90dB+ dynamic range–through a stereo-equipped TV or regular TV and stereo hi-fi home audio system. The built-in MTS/SAP decoder allows reception and recording of off-air television stereo broadcasts and second audio program transmissions, where available.

VCR PLUS+™ PROGRAMMING Simplifies

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.

8-EVENT/1 YEAR SMART PROGRAMMING

REMOTE CONTROL ON-SCREEN MENU PROGRAMMING Program by remote control

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.
