Sony EV-S7000 - Additional Operations (continued); Marking index signals; Erasing index signals

Notes
¢ When you mark an index
signal, the recorded sound
may be interrupted and a
black bar appears on at the
bottom of the TV screen, but
the tape will not be
damaged.
Leave an interval between
indices of at least 2 minutes
for SP mode, and at least 4
minutes for LP mode, so that
the VCR can detect the
signals correctly.
If you mark or erase an
index signal on a tape that
has been marked with date
codes, the date codes may be
erased.
You can’t mark or erase
index signals on cassettes
that have their safety tab in
the red position.
Note
© You can't erase index signals
that occur at the beginning of
the tape, or those on tapes
marked by a video camera or
other VCR.
Marking index signals
You can mark and index anywhere on a tape, so that you can easily
find the specific point later on. Press INDEX MARK while in recording
or playback mode.
This VCR cannot mark a “date” index.
Erasing index signals
You can remove any unwanted “normal” index signals using this
function. However, you can’t erase “date” index signals.
1 Press 44/>>1 INDEX SEARCH
while in stop or playback mode.
The VCR rewinds or fast-forwards the
tape automatically, and playback starts
when the index number indicated on the
TV screen reaches “0.”
2 Press INDEX ERASE during the 10-
second preview for the index you
want to erase. To stop erasing
index signals, press >> PLAY or
@ STOP.
