Recording Procedures
This section describes the procedures used to record
signals sent from another VCR to this unit. For details
on the procedures required when using a computer as a
player, refer to the instruction manual of your
computer or the users manuals of the software
installed on it.
1 After checking that the REC/SAVE switch on the
cassette is set to REC, checking the tape for slack
and confirming that the q indicator is off, hold

and the tape will be ready to record.
For details on the REC/SAVE switch and checking the
tape for slack, see Notes on Video Cassettes on page

Recording Functions
Marking an index
By pressing the INDEX button on the unit or the
INDEX WRITE button on the Remote Commander
during recording, you can mark an index signal at any
place on the tape. The index signal is inserted for five
seconds. If you mark an index at the scene you want to
search for, you can easily find the scene later.
If AUTO INDEX on the VTR SET menu is set to ON,
the index signal is marked automatically when the unit
in the stop mode starts recording.
While the index is being marked, the INDEX
MARK indicator appears for about seven seconds on
the Data screen (see page 27 (GB)).
If you use a cassette with cassette memory, the index
will also be marked in the cassette memory.
Notes
You cannot mark a new index while the INDEX
MARK indicator is being displayed.
If you record on a portion of the tape where an index
has been marked, the index will be erased. You
cannot delete just an index while keeping the image
or sound.
You cannot mark an index during playback,
duplicating or audio dubbing operations. The INDEX
button and the INDEX WRITE button are disabled in
these operations.
The cassette memory space available limits the
number of indexes that you can mark. When you use
a previously recorded tape for repeated recordings,
make more memory space available by erasing
unwanted items using ITEM ERASE or ERASE ALL
on the CM SET menu before you start recording.
To use an index during playback
You will need the Remote Commander or the Remote
Control Unit (DSRM-20, not supplied).
For details on the playback functions using the Remote
Commander, see Searching using the search function in
Playback Functions on page 37 (GB).
