LP Timer
If, when timer-recording in SP mode, there is not enough tape to
record the entire programme, the recorder automatically
switches to LP mode (with PAL broadcasts) or EP mode (with
NTSC broadcasts) to allow complete recording.
For Example . . .
Recording a PAL-broadcast programme of 210 minutes in length
onto a 180-minute tape
NOTES:
●
If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or
more programmes, the second programme and those
thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set "AUTO SP
→
LP
TIMER" to "ON". In this case, make sure the mode is not
engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer
programming.
●
In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this
feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of
the tape.
●
There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point
on the tape where the recorder switches from SP to LP (or EP)
mode.
●
The Auto SP
→
LP Timer feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work
properly with any tapes longer than E-180 or with some tapes
of shorter lengths.
