6.5 TIME DATE SEARCH MENU
On this menu you set the date, time, and direction to search for the desired location
on a tape.
TIME Turn the JOG dial to set the hour and minute to search for.
DATE Turn the JOG dial to set the day of the month to search for.
DIRECTION Turn the JOG dial to select the starting direction of the search
(FORWARD or REVERSE).
To start the search, turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right. If the VCR does not find the
specified part of the tape in one direction, it automatically searches in the opposite
direction.

DIRECTION FORWARD
Use JOG to adjust,
and ENTER.
NOTES:
The VCR writes an hour
index mark on the tape on the hour,
which it uses as a reference when
searching. Because of this, a re-
corded tape must pass a time clock
hour mark before this function can
work. The time date search func-
tion begins after the first hour in-
dex mark.
Example 1: The VCR is set to
record from 8:30 to 17:30. Times
from 9:00 to 17:30 can be found.
Example 2: The VCR is set to
record in one speed from 7:00 to
14:30, then in another speed until
18:00. Times from 7:00 to 14:30
and 15:00 to 18:00 can be found.
The time and date search function
only works for tapes recorded on
this model VCR.
If the recording quality is poor, the
VCR may fail to locate the desired
part of the tape during a time date
search.
