4) History of head clog warning
With detection of head clog, the EEPROM counts the data and the history of head clog warnings can
be checked on the display of a personal computer with the SSS (Service Support Software).
Other specifications are as follows.
•
If sync block data is read from neither of two channels for 10 continuous frames, the system
recognizes that no signal is recorded in the part and does not perform clog detection. (The cleaning
tape is recognized as a non-recorded tape.)
•
Head clog detection in the short-playback mode is not performed at the first start of recording.
•
Head clog detection is not performed in any mode other than the normal playback mode such as
the FF/REW, Special Playback, Audio-dubbing/Insert modes.
•
Method to display marks and messages conforms to the specifications of respective models.
