NewCompactDesign-State-of-the-artminiaturization
now allows RCA to dramatically reduce the size of its
VCR's without sacrificing features or performance. This
new compact size takes up less space on top of a console
TV or in a component rack system. Use the extra room
for cable-TV decoders, headphones, or other peripheral
equipment.
Infrared Remote Control-Puts complete control of your
VCR's most popular features in the palm of your hand.
Wireless remote control uses reliable infrared signals to
activate all primary functions, including timer
programming. VCR can be operated with an RCA
Digital Command remote control and integrated into a
unified RCA audio/video system.
Remote Control Operates Compatible TV--New remote
control features buttons that control some functions of a
compatible RCA or Sears TV. Now you can control the
TV's volume and turn it on and off with your VCR
remote.
FS Tuner-Ill-channel Frequency Synthesis (FS)
tuning provides accurate selection of all VHF/UHF or
up to 41 unscrambled cable channels.*
Quartz-controlled electronics automatically lock the
system onto the signal, eliminating the need for fine
tuning. Most cable systems can be connected directly
through the VCR without the need for a converter box.
Bright, easy-to-read display indicates channel selected.
*Local systems may vary; check your cable company's
compatibility requirements.
Auto Programming-Preset available channels into
VCR's electronic scan memory at the touch of a single
button. No more elaborate programming steps. After
automatic programming, channels can be selected by
remote control scanning-either up or down. ADD and
ERASE buttons are also included for customizing the
memory scan list.
8-Hour Recording Time-Enjoy up to 8 hours of
uninterrupted recording or playback in SLP mode with
T-160 cassette. Standard Play (SP) and Long Play (LP)
are also included to ensure compatibility with all VHS
tapes. VCR automatically selects correct playback
speed.
On-Screen Remote Timer Programming-With RCA's
advanced remote control, all timer programming can be
done from across the room. At the touch of abutton,
easy-to-follow instructions appear on the TV screen and
guide the viewer through each programming sequence.
The timer memory can be preset up to a year in advance
to record up to 4 events automatically.
Express Recording (XPR) Use this feature to record
without numerous programming steps. Just enter the
length of desired program (up to 4 hours) while
recording. VCR will record for the proper length of time
and shut off automatically.
Fluorescent Displays-Vivid amber, easy-to-read
displays include channel number, current time and day,
and tape speed selected. Indicators include status
displays, cassette-in display, timer programmed display,
Express Record (XPR) display, and many more that aid
in easy operation of this VCR.
Tape Counter with Memory-When the tape counter is
displayed on the TV screen, fast forward and rewind will
stop when the counter reads "0000." By resetting the
counter to "0000" at the desired point on the tape, you
can stop at this point for repeated viewing of a certain
scene.
Search/Stop Action-Visually scan forward or reverse
through taped material. Examine details easily missed in
a moving picture by stopping the action at any point in
the tape. SLP mode provides best performance.
Auto Power-On-Simply inserting a cassette in the VCR
turns it on. A POWER button is also provided for
manual control.
Auto Play-When a prerecorded cassette (with record
protect tab removed) is inserted in the VCR, it
automatically starts playing. When the end of the tape is
reached, Auto Rewind automatically rewinds the tape.
Auto Rewind with Shutoff-When VCR reaches the end
of the tape in Playback or Record, it automatically
rewinds the tape. This ends the trouble of remembering
to rewind tapes (which is recommended for proper care
of cassettes). To prevent accidental tape erasures,
however, the tape does not Auto Rewind after timer
recording.
HQ Picture-Advanced electronics sharpen image
definition for improved picture quality. HQ circuitry
provides superior recording quality while allowing
complete playback compatibility with recordings made
on non-HQ VHS machines.
Optional Aecessodes Optional Accessories are
available for use with your new VCR to expand your
home video system. Some accessories are shown on
