AUDIO IN/OUT Jacks: jacks located on the front and back of
the VCR which are used to record audio from another source
(IN) or to send audio to another source (OUT).
Automatic Channel Programming: process in which the
VCR scans all available channels and places the ones you receive
in its memory. Then, when you push the CHANNEL (Up/Down)
buttons, you only scan through channels you receive.
Bands: settings that allow you to tune channels.
• Antenna – VHF (very high frequency; channels 2 - 13) and
UHF (ultra high frequency; channels 14 - 69).
• Cable – all standard channels can be received without a Cable
Box.
Cable Box/DSS Receiver Output Channel: Channel 03 or 04.
Dubbing: copying a tape using a second VCR.
Frame: a single still picture.
HQ: high quality; a feature in the VCR circuitry which provides
enhanced picture detail.
Line Input: The channel to which you set your VCR during dub-
bing. The line input channel is always channel 001 (AV REAR) or
002 (AV FRONT).
If you accidentally enter Line Input mode (AV REAR or AV
FRONT will appear on your TV screen briefly), press the CHAN-
NEL (Up/Down) buttons or use the Number buttons to select
another channel.

OTR: one touch recording; programming a timed recording that
starts immediately and records for 30 minutes to eight hours,

Remote Control: the small electronic unit that came with your
VCR; allows you to operate your VCR from a distance. You may
be able to operate your TV, Cable Box or Digital Satellite System
with the remote control.
RF coaxial cable: The cable supplied with your VCR. Use it to
connect your VCR to your TV (or Cable Box/DSS Receiver, if
applicable). The supplied cable is a snap-on type. However, you
may also use a screw-on type if you prefer.
Special Effects: forward and reverse searching; viewing a still
picture; slow motion.

• SP (standard play) – fastest tape speed (recording time for a
T120 tape is approximately two hours); best picture quality.

tape is approximately four hours).
