Using Memory
The linear time counter memory stops a rewinding tape at approximately
0:00:00M. This feature helps in locating a specific point in the tape to
which you wish to return. An example might be that you have recorded
some tape that you have already watched, you continue recording but do
not care to watch the tape you recorded earlier. The memory feature
returns you to the beginning of the most recent recording.
1. Press the DISPLAY button on the remote control so the linear time
counter with memory is displayed as shown in the figure.
2. Start recording or playback of a cassette. Press the COUNTER RESET
button on the remote control at the point to which you wish to return. The
linear time counter clears to 0:00:00M.
3. Press the STOP button to stop playback, or press the start/stop button
to stop recording and set the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch to VIDEO.
4. Press the REW button and the tape stops at approximately where you
reset the linear time counter. This feature works in F.FWD as well.
Setting the Date and Time
Take the time to set the date and time now. The time backup battery is
rechargeable. Charge the backup battery every two months. Set the
CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch on the camera/recorder to OFF and connect a
charged battery or the AC adapter/charger to the camcorder for 24 hours.
If you record the date and time at the beginning of each recording session
they will serve as a handy reminder when viewing tapes at a later date.
Make sure that the current time is displayed correctly before you start
filming.
Note: The backup battery should be charged every two months. If it is not
charged periodically, it will be over-discharged and its life will be shortened.
1. Load the battery ("Loading Batteries: Camera/Recorder Battery" p.19)
Press the red button on the CAM/OFF/VIDEO switch as you slide it to
