Timer Activated Operation

Use a commercially available audio timer
to activate recording or playback at a
desired time.
Read the operating instructions for the
timer and the amplifier.

Timer Activated Recording

1
Turn on the timer.
2
Turn on the DAT deck, and prepare
for recording. (Follow steps of
"recording" on page 21.)
3
Set the timer to the desired time.
Power to the amplifier and to the DAT
deck is turned off. Leave the power
switches of the equipment turned on.
4
Set TIMER to REC.
At the preset time, the power is
supplied and recording starts after
about 4 seconds.
The AUTO indicator will be the same
as the one before the power of the
DAT deck is turned off.
When the AUTO indicator lights, start
IDs will be written during recording.
When timer activated recording is
finished
Be sure to set the TIMER switch to the OFF
position.
Precautions
• If the TIMER switch is left at the REC
position, recording will start when the
power is turned on the next time, and the
tape contents will be erased.
• In timer recording (the TIMER switch is
set to the REC position), the auto rewind
function will not be activated even if the
tape is fully taken up. The tape stops
without being rewound so that recording
will not be performed over the previously
recorded material.
• Be sure to activate timer recording with
the cassette inserted properly in the
cassette compartment. With the
cassette compartment lid opened, timer
recording will not function.
