between edits. Your VCR must have the EDIT IN jack to use the synchro
edit.

1. Connect the synchro edit cable to the AV IN/OUT jack of your
camera/recorder.
2. Connect the synchro edit cable to the AUDIO IN, VIDEO IN, and EDIT
IN jacks of your VCR. Connect either the right or left audio plug into your
VCR if it has only one AUDIO IN jack.
Note: Some VCR's have an S-VIDEO IN jack. Connect the black S-VIDEO
plug to the VCR instead of the yellow VIDEO plug.
3. Insert the recorded tape in the camera/recorder and a blank tape into
the VCR.
4. Play the tape in the camera/recorder until you find the place you want to
record. Press the Start/Stop button.
5. Press the RECORD button on the VCR. It automatically sets to pause.
If the VCR begins to record instead of pausing you need to change the
position of the polarity switch on the synchro edit cable. Stop the VCR,
change the position of the polarity switch, and press the RECORD button
on the VCR.
6. Press the S.EDIT button on the remote control and the last few seconds
of the recorded tape reviews in the viewfinder and then the
camera/recorder is placed in playback. The recording VCR starts
recording automatically.
7. Press the F.FWD, REW, STOP and Start/Stop buttons to pause the
VCR. You can then search forward or back through the tape without
affecting the tape in the VCR.
Use the F.FWD and REW buttons to search the tape. Press the PLAY
button to resume normal playback. To resume recording on the tape in the
VCR, press the Start/Stop button and then the S.EDIT button.
To fast forward or rewind the tape, press the STOP button, then F.FWD or
REW. To return to recording on the tape in the VCR, press the STOP
button, then the PLAY button, then the Start/Stop button, and then the
S.EDIT button.
8. To stop recording at a certain point turn on the camera/recorder's linear
time counter with memory ("Using Memory," p.23). Press the COUNTER
RESET button on the remote control where you wish the recording to stop.
The linear time counter resets to 0:00:00M. Rewind to the point where you
wish to start recording and start copying. When the linear time counter
reaches 0:00:00 the recording stops automatically, pausing the VCR in the
record mode.
Note: If the tape counter reads "0:00:00M" you cannot start recording.
Simple Programmable Edit
Simple programmable edit allows you to program your camera/recorder to
select the scenes you want to copy from a pre-recorded tape. Use the edit
remote control (provided) to easily copy scenes from a recorded tape in
the camera/recorder (playback machine) onto a blank tape in a table-top
VCR which handles infrared remote signals (recording machine).
