Editing does not operate correctly

The symptom description is indicated in quotations “

”.

“One-Touch-Editing does not work.”

Is One-Touch-Edit on the SET UP screen set to
“ON” ?

“Editing does not commence; the VCR stays in the

recording pause state.”

While setting the edit start point on the playback unit,
this VCR switched from the recording pause state to
the stopped state.

In order to protect the tape and the head from

damage, this VCR is designed to automatically stop if
it is left in the recording pause state for more than 5
minutes.

“The picture from the playback unit is not appeared.”

Does INPUT SELECT setting match the sockets that

are actually connected?
Are the cables connected to the playback unit
securely?

“Cannot execute the editing operation, or the operation
stops suddenly before it is complete.”

The following are possible causes:

There is a blank segment in the middle of the tape in

the recording unit.

The tape speed (SP/LP) or the audio mode (12bit/

16bit) changed in the middle of the tape in the
recording unit.

The end of the tape was reached in the VCR.
The VCR was suddenly not able to control the

connected unit.

The tape that is being used either does not contain

continuous Time codes, or contains two identical
Time codes.

The Input select setting or EDIT CONTROL was

changed while editing was still in progress.

An edit start/end point was set within 20 seconds of

the beginning of the tape.

“The EDIT MENU screen does not appear, even though
EDIT MENU has been pressed”

EDIT CONTROL is set to OFF.

This unit is set as indicated below in the following

instances.

With EDIT CONTROL set to DV, is EDIT MODE set

to PLAYER or PASSIVE? (when two AG-DV2000s

are connected)

With EDIT CONTROL set to EDIT, is EDIT MODE

set to PASSIVE?

“Control of the playback unit was lost while editing was in
progress”

If the playback unit is left in the pause state for more

than 5 minutes, it may automatically stop in order to
protect the tape and the head from damage.

If the playback unit is a video camera, control is not
possible if the camera is in CAMERA Mode. Put the

camera into PLAYBACK (VCR) Mode.

“Program Editing is not available for selection on the EDIT

MENU screen”

Program Editing is not available if the playback unit

that is connected does not have a Time code or tape

(linear) counter display.

“After setting the edit start/end points, the next screen does
not appear when OK is pressed”

Have all three points in the edit start/end points been

set on the playback unit and the recording unit?

Program setting is not completed unless 3 or more
points are set.

Are the edit start/end points set in the wrong order
(i.e., the editing end precedes the in point)?

“Cannot set program”

Have the maximum number of programs already been
set?

“A set program is skipped”

Are there at least 4 seconds between the edit start
point and the end point?

Editing may not be performed properly for a program

with a set duration of less than 4 seconds.

“Cannot adjust the edit timing”

The edit timing cannot be adjusted if the playback unit
that is connected does not have a Time code or tape

(linear) counter display.
