Set this function to the appropriate mode depending on the type of unit connected to the rear panel AV2 (L-2) IN/

DECODER connector of the recorder.

NOTES:

● If you have a decoder connected to the AV2 (L-2) IN/DECODER connector, be sure to set “L-2 SELECT” back to “DECODER” after editing.

If you’re not connecting a decoder to the AV2 (L-2) IN/

DECODER connector, leave “L-2 SELECT” set to “L-2”.

You can play back PAL, NTSC and MESECAM tapes, or record PAL and SECAM* signals on this recorder. Select the appropriate colour system.

* SECAM signals will be recorded as MESECAM on this recorder;

MESECAM is the designation for tapes with SECAM signals that have been recorded on a MESECAM-compatible PAL video cassette recorder.

NOTES:

About NTSC Playback

● Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or the TV.

The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)

● The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.

During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.

Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
