• The possible recording time depends on the type of video tape used.
• Audio recording is possible in the SPA2, EPA6, SPA12, EPA18 and SPA24 modes.
• In SPL01, SPL02 or SPL03 modes, the VCR is set to recording pause mode. The alarm recording starts by an alarm trigger
signal input, and the VCR is set to recording pause mode again to wait for next alarm trigger input. When recording pause
mode continues for appointed time (SPL01: 1 min, SPL02: 2 min, SPL03: 3 min.) without an alarm trigger input, the VCR
forwards the tape 2 fields with recording to protect the tape and the video head from damage.
■ HOW TO OPERATE 24 HOUR VIRTUAL REAL TIME MODE
• In order to operate 24 hour virtual real time mode, please use T-160 VMS video tape with EPA18 record mode. EPA18 mode
means that T-120 tape will run 18 hours. However, if you use longer length of video tape which is T-160, it will record up to 24
hours with EPA18 mode. Also, when you use EPA18 mode for recording, you will get 20 fields of video information per
second, SPA24 mode will be less than 5 fields video information per second. (Refer to the above chart for the details.)
• When using the T-160 tape, it will be necessary to replace the tape with new one and make a cleaning of the mechanical deck
of this VCR more frequently. Because, the thickness of T-160 tape is about 3/4 of T-120 tape, so durability, mechanical
strength, etc. of the tape are inferior to T-120 tape.
