Notes

• The unit cannot detect signals for Index signal, a

signal other than the one set by [AUTO] in [HDV/DV
SEL], or an unrecorded portion within 20 seconds of
the beginning of the playback.

• When you intend to turn the unit off, press STOP

button on the unit to stop the tape transport operation
beforehand. If you turn the unit off while a tape is
running, for example, by using an AC timer, the unit
or the tape may be damaged.

• The editing software used on the digital non-linear

editing system may mark index signals on a tape
itself. Therefore, if you use a tape on which signals
transmitted from a digital non-linear editing
controller are recorded or a copy tape made from one,
using digital dubbing, Auto Repeat may not be
performed correctly.
