Location and Function of Parts
6 REC/TALLY (recording/tally) indicators (red)
• These flashe from the time when you press the VTR
button on the lens or camcorder until recording starts,
then stay on continuously during recording.
• These are also used to indicate a fault. (See page
142.)
• When a CCU (camera control unit) is connected,
these indicators light only when a CALL signal is
received from the CCU. They do not light or flash
during VCR recording or in the case of a VCR fault.
