Basic Operations (Recording) - 27 -
Select minutes by pressing buttons 0 to 9 - one digit for hours, then two digits for
minutes. Then press F.FWD if you want to move that many minutes ahead, or REW if
you want to move that many minutes backward.
For example, say you want to review a scene that began about 2 minutes earlier in a
video, press 0, 0, and 2 to display 0:02 on the screen. Then press REW.
The tape rewinds to the place 2 minutes back from where you began, then starts
playback automatically from that spot.
Jump to an Index Mark with INDEX
A quick way to access specific program segments is with the index search feature. This
lets you move through a tape that has several recordings on it by searching for the
INDEX "mark". This function only works with recordings that have been set up with
indexing. You create an INDEX mark every time you press the REC and PLAY buttons
at the same time on the remote control or the REC/IRT button on the VCR. For more on
how this gets recorded, see the section on Recording a Program (page 30).
This VCR's indexing system is based on the VHS Standard Indexing System (VISS).
The new system may not recognize index marks on tapes recorded on older VCRs.
If the VCR is in PLAY mode, press STOP.
Press INDEX on the remote control. This brings up Set Go-To Time/Index screen.
Press REW or F.FWD to begin the index search.
The tape rewinds or fast-forwards until an index mark is detected.
When the VCR finds an index mark, it plays 15 seconds of the program that begins at
that spot. During this period, the words SCAN AND PLAY will be displayed on the
bottom of your screen.
If this is the program you were looking for, press INDEX and the VCR will stop
searching. Or press PLAY, resume normal playback.
If this is not the program you want, don't press anything. After 15 seconds, the VCR
will move to the next mark and play a part of that program. The VCR will continue
searching until you press INDEX again or PLAY reach the end of the tape.
When you find the program you want, press INDEX and the VCR returns to PLAY
mode.
To stop the index search before an index mark is reached, press STOP.
If there are no index marks on the tape, the VCR will just rewind to beginning or fast
forward to the end.
