with their negative and positive
terminals positioned correctly.
3. Close the lid until it clicks.
How often should the batteries be changed?
The batteries will normally last about six
months. However if you notice that the
distance between the remote control unit
and the V-7000/V-5000 required for opera-
tion becomes shorter, the batteries should
be changed. Replace the batteries with two
new ones.
Precautions Regarding Batteries
Be sure to insert the batteries with the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
positioned correctly.
Never use old and new batteries together.
Replacement batteries should be of the
same type. Never use batteries of different
types together.
Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batte-
an be used. Refer to their precaution
Remove the batteries from the remote
control unit when it will not be used for a
long period of time.
When the batteries are weak, replace them
as soon as possible.
Do not heat or disassemble batteries and
do not dispose of them by throwing them
into a fire.
2. Remote Control Unit RC-394 or RC-393
When operating using the remote control,
point the front of the unit at the remote
sensor of the V-7000/V-5000, The remote
control unit can be used within the range
shawn in Fig. 5.
Notes:
e Even if the remote control unit is operated
within the effective range, remote control
operation may be impossible if there is
any obstruction between the V-7000/V-
5000 and the remote control unit.
elf the deck is operated in the vicinity of
other appliances generating infrared rays,
or if other remote control devices using
infrared rays are used near the V-7000/
V-5000, the deck may operate incor-
rectly. Conversely, if the V-7000/V-5000's
remote control unit is operated in the
vicinity of other appliances which use an
infrared remote control device, the other
appliance may operate incorrectly.
When the unit will not be used for a long
period of time (more than one month),
remove the batteries to prevent them
from leaking. If they do leak, wipe off the
liquid inside the battery compartment and
replace the batteries with new ones.
Do not place books or other objects on
the remote control unit as they could
press the buttons and discharge the
batteries.
DOLBY HX PRO
Dolby HX Pro is an “active bias” technique
that can improve the quality of audio tape
recordings. High-level high frequencies can
be recorded more accurately, without
sacrificing signal-to-noise ratio, while such
side effects of tape saturation as distortion
are reduced.
What Is Bias?
Bias is a very high-frequency signal generat-
ed within a tape deck and recorded on the
tape simultaneously with the program
material. This inaudible signal allows a low
noise, low distortion recording and flat
frequency response. Different magnetic tape
formulations require different amounts
of bias for optimum performance. If the
bias level is too high, high-frequency
Maximum Output Level (MOL) decreases.
The Problem of Self-Bias
Unfortunately, bias level is often influenced
by the signal being recorded. The high fre-
quencies contained in some music act as
bias. This unpredictable source of bias is
added to the existing bias, resulting in a loss
of high-frequency response. As the high-
frequency content of the signal increases,
the ability of the recorder to record high
frequencies (MOL) decreases. This pheno-
menon is called self-biasing.

How Dolby HX Pro Solution
The Dolby HX Pro monitors the high-
frequency content of the program material
and adjusts the recorder bias oscillator to
maintain a constant total bias level, The
result is improved high-frequency response
and lower distortion. Depending on the type
of tape, the improvement in headroom can
be 6 dB or more.
The Benefits
With Dolby HX Pro, it is easier to make
more accurate recordings of the kind of
music which contains high-level high fre-
quencies. The improvement is similar to
that of high-performance tape over conven-
tional tape, so regardless of the type of
tape used; the results will sound better.
Most important of all, Dolby HX Pro
requires no decoding process. Once the
tape is recorded with it, the improvements
will be realized when playing the tape back
on any machine.
