When turning on the power and inserting a cassette

press the 18 PAUSE or B> (play) button.
When the non-signal fevel lasts for more than 3
seconds and a selection then starts, the start ID is
written for 9 seconds (18 seconds in the long-play
mode).
While a start ID is being written. the
indicator blinks on the display.
Why 9 seconds or 18 seconds are necessary for writing
a start ID 2?
A start ID requires 9 or 18 seconds to allow to be detected
when rewinding/fast-forwarding a tape. (The speed is 200
times as fast as that of normal tape operation.)
After the start ID is located, the tape returns to the
beginning of the start ID if necessary, and playback starts
from the beginning of the selection.
If the signal level stays very low for more than 3
seconds
If there is a portion of very low volume level during a
selection, a start ID may be written even in the middle of
the selection. An unwanted start ID can be erased later.
(See page 29.)
When the portion between selections is not clear
The start ID position may not coincide exactly to the
beginning of the selection. To shift the start ID position, see
"Shifting Start 1Ds' and Program Numbers Position" on
page 31.
