In addition to the ordinary audio signals,
various control codes called sub codes
can be recorded on the DAT cassette
tapes to ease recording and reproducing
operation.  Å
A)The sub codes are recorded.
B)Audio signals are recorded.

A desired selection can be called up or
time information can be displayed using
the sub codes, for example.
The sub codes such as start ID, program
number, skip ID, end ID and absolute time
are available on this unit.

• Sub codes are written on the tape

separately from the audio signals, so the
audio signals are not affected.

• Sub codes, except the absolute time,

can be rewritten after the audio signal
recording has been completed.
The recorded audio signals are not
affected by the rewritten sub codes.

• When you record the tape with sub

codes written onto a new tape via digital-
to-digital connection, the sub codes to
be written on the new tape are following:

A)
