Basic Operation

• If you don't see the menu picture below after you press the menu button it may be because you
don't use a RCA cable and you need to tune the television to the player (see 'Connecting your
player through RF lead' on page 10). Normally a new player outputs a signal via the RF lead on
transmission channel 36. Search for the menu picture with the channel tuning function of your TV
set (see its user manual). Some televisions allow you to key in the transmission channel number in
their tuning set-up menu.
• In case there will be interference problems with other transmission channels when the player
outputs a signal on transmission channel 36, the AUTO SEARCH process usually recommends an
alternative, as in step 4.
• There is a another way of setting RF output channel, if needed please see 'Connections and
Assembling on page 33'. It does not apply to models which do not generate the RF output signal.

Connections and Assembling
Assembling
Should you wish to assemble your own film, from camcorder footage for example, use the assembly technique
for smooth edit points:
• Move the tape to the position at which the new
scene is to be added using the play functions.
• Wind back slightly before the edit point and put
the machine into pause using the [PAUSE] button
(do not press STOP!).
• Now go directly into record.
For the best results, the source cassette from which
you are recording should already be playing back
when you start recording.
