Notes on Video Cassettes
Cassette memory
Cassette memory is an optional feature that is mounted on some Standard
DVCAM/DV cassettes and Mini DVCAM/Mini DV cassettes. When you
record a program, the recording date and time, and the programs' position
on the tape are stored in the cassette memory so that you can quickly
locate the program later on. CPHGK indicates that you can use the
cassettes to store up to 16 kbits of data. On this unit, you can use cassettes
on which up to 16 kbits of data can be stored.
To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure of a recording, slide the REC/SAVE switch
on the cassette so that the red portion becomes visible. To record on a tape,
slide the switch so that the red portion is hidden.
