Programming & Record/Playback Features

Hi-Fi Stereo Sound with Built-In MTS/SAP Decoder
Record stereo videotapes from stereo sound sources and playback 
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. Back-up memory
logic retains the cable channel guide map indefinitely even during a power 
failure or when the VCR is disconnected from its power source.

VCR Plus+™ Programming
Simplifies VCR programming by allowing you to simply enter PlusCode

programming numbers found in many published television listings. When

Picture

4-Head, Double Azimuth Design 
Combines direct drive cylinder and capstan motors with precision digital
servo control to produce excellent special effects reproduction in Still
and Slow modes 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 track-
ing position for clearest picture and sound. Buttons on the remote trans-
mitter give you manual control should tracking adjustments be necessary.

Auto Head Cleaner
Gently, automatically cleans the video heads each time a tape is inserted
or removed to maintain optimum picture performance during both
recording and playback.

Convenience

Daylight Savings Timer
This menu-driven feature automatically compensates for Daylight Savings
Time changes in early April and late October so you don’t have to reset
the clock twice a year. Simply activate the Daylight Savings Time option
in the Set Clock menu and forget it!

Automatic Channel Setup
The VCR tuner scans through television frequencies, automatically 
storing active broadcast channel into memory. Then, only active channels
programmed into memory are tuned using the CHANNEL

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.

Front Panel Audio/Video Inputs 
Provide added convenience to the user when recording tapes directly
from a camcorder to the VCR. In addition, accessory video equipment
such as a video game or Web browser can be connected for direct
playthrough to the TV set.

181-Channel FS Tuning 
The digital quartz tuner can receive 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 you to all important recording and playback conditions,
correct time, counter position, tape speed, channel number, etc.

Bilingual (English/Spanish) Onscreen Function Display
