Programming & Record/Playback Features
VCR Plus+™ Programming
Simplifies VCR programming by allowing you to simply enter PlusCode
®
programming numbers found in many published television listings. When
recording begins, your VCR automatically selects the proper TV channel
and program length. 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.
Auto DBS RecordLink™
If you own a satellite dish, this is the feature you’ve been waiting for. Set
your DBS receiver to turn on and tune in to a specific program and it
will automatically turn on the VCR in the record mode and then turn off
when the DBS receiver turns off. The secret is in the A/V input jack
panel. It senses the presence of a video signal…and the rest is history.

4-Head, Double Azimuth Design
Combines direct drive cylinder and capstan motors with precision digital
servo control to produce excellent special effects reproduction–Still,
Slow, and with the appropriate remote control, Frame Advance, Variable
Slow Motion and x2 Play–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.

Convenience
SmartClock™
This menu-driven feature automatically maintains the correct time, regu-
larly checking and updating the time if necessary. It also resets the clock
after a power failure. The menu-driven time zone feature allows selection
of appropriate time for those who live in a time zone other than that of
their CATV service provider.
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 ▲ ▼ buttons
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.
Gold-plated Front Panel Audio/Video Inputs
For added convenience when recording tapes directly from a camcorder
to the VCR with the reliability of gold plating. In addition, accessory
video equipment such as a video game or Web browser can be connected
for direct playthrough to the TV set.
