Video head cleaning Although this unit comes with an auto head cleaning function which reduces the amount of dirt on the heads, it is recommended that the video heads be cleanid every day for even more dependable operation. (For further details, please consult with your local dealer.) ∑ Operation Remove the cover of the upper portion on the cylinder.
Rack-mounting The VTR can be installed in a 19-inch standard rack using the AJ-MA37P rack-mounting adapters (optional accessory). It is recommended that the slide rail (CC3001-99-0191) made by Chassis Trak be used as the installed rails. For further details, consult your dealer. 1. Attach the inner members on each side of the VTR using the four screws supplied with the slide rails . The length of the screws used is limited.
Troubleshooting Symptom Cause and countermeasure VTR fails to operate as per the mode selected on the menu screen. Has the mode been changed on another menu? ≥The mode selected last has priority. ≥REC INHIBIT takes priority in the following sequence: CASSETTE, HOME and MANUAL/AUTO EDIT SET UP. Therefore, signals cannot be recorded if the REC INHIBIT status has been established on the cassette tape itself. VTR fails to operate even when a function button is pressed.
