The first thing you need to do is to insert the tape.
Then call up its directory. How soon it appears
depends on the type of tape on which the desired
program is recorded.
Preparation
1. Turn on the power to the TV and the VCR.
2. Set the TV to the channel or mode appropriate for
video playback.
●
If you're using an HR tape recorded on your INDEX
Plus+ VCR, the directory is already stored in the
VCR's memory and is quickly accessible. Press
INDEX Plus+ to display the directory.
●
If the program you want to watch is on an HR tape
that was recorded on a different INDEX Plus+ VCR,
the directory must be uploaded before it can be
displayed. (See page 23.)
●
PR tapes recorded using INDEX Plus+ have their
directories written directly on them. Press INDEX
Plus+. A short time is required before the directory
can be displayed.
Each time you
press ,
the
screen changes
as shown.
Once the directory appears, you can make your
selection. Using the CURSOR button (VOL+/–), place
the cursor next to the name of the program you want
to watch, and press PLAY. The VCR begins searching
the tape for the program's start point, and playback
begins once it's found.
If you press STOP, the tape stops at the start point of
the program.
Press INDEX Plus+ to return to the normal screen.
NOTES:
●
The
*
in the screen above shows the tape's current
position. (The
*
only appears when the VCR is able
to detect the position of the tape.)
●
The
→
indicates that the entire title is not displayed.
To view the entire title, press the REW and FF
buttons.
●
If the recording speed was changed during a program,
– – appears. (Recorded time is calculated as though
the program were recorded entirely in EP mode.)
●
The displayed length of each program is approximate.
●
If there is a blank space of more than 5 minutes on
the tape, BLANK SPACE appears on screen.
Preparation
1. Turn on the power to the TV and the VCR.
2. Set the TV to the channel or mode appropriate for
video playback.
3. Insert an HR tape into the VCR.
Procedure
1
Press INDEX Plus+.
2
The tape's directory appears. To view the
directories of other tapes stored in the VCR's
memory, press < (DIGIT "7") or > (DIGIT "9").
There are two ways to search for a program. You can
use TITLE search, where you tell the VCR to find your
program using its name, or TAPE # search, where the
VCR uses the Tape Number of the tape containing the
desired program.
Your search starts from one of two situations:
1
A tape is already in the machine, and you decide
you want to watch another program, but you're not
sure where it is.
2
There's no tape in the machine, and you want the
VCR to find the program you want to watch.
The procedures for each method are explained in the
following pages.
