| OTHER RECORDING POSSIBILITIES
RECORDING A TV PROGRAMME WHILE
WATCHING ANOTHER
A programme not being viewed can be recorded while you
enjoy another programme, This permits the recorded pro-
gramme to be played back later at your convenience.
The recording procedure is exactly the same as described on
the previous page. The points to be remembered are:
®@Select the channel you wish to record with the recorder’s
channel select buttons.
@Select the channel you wish to view with the TV receiver's
channel selector.
RECORDING STEREO TV PROGRAMMES
(Applicable only to the West German Sound-Multiplex TV
system)
(f stereo TV programmes are broadcast in your area, the
HR-S5OO00EG automatically receives them in stereo. When a
stereo programme is being received, the STEREO indicator @
lights and recording is made in stereo on the hi-fi audio track
and in mono (mixed L + R)} on the normal audio track. To
listen to the stereo soundtrack during recording, press the
AUDIO MONITOR button @ so that L and R light. If this
button is left pressed for either L or R, you will hear only one
channel while recording, though the recording is being made in
stereo.
RECORDING BILINGUAL TV PROGRAMMES
{Applicable only to the West German Sound-Multiplex TV
system)
When a bilingual TV programme is being received, the 2-TON
indicator @ lights. There is a switch to select the sound-
track to be recorded on the normal audio track, however,
because both soundtracks are recorded always on the hi-fi
track for selective listening, you can ignore the switch labelled
2-KANAL TON @ in most cases unless you need a specific
soundtrack on the normal audio track.
@Set 2-KANAL TON switch @ to HAUPT to record the
main soundtrack (local language), to NEBEN to record the
sub soundtrack (foreign language).
®To listen to the selected soundtrack from the hi-fi audio
track while recording, press the AUDIO MONITOR button
for either L or R.
To listen to the soundtrack being recorded on the normal
audio track, press the AUDIO MIX button @ for NORM.
RECORDING FM SIMULCAST TV PROGRAMMES
FM simulcast TV programmes can be recorded using an FM
stereo tuner. Connect necessary components. (Connect the FM
tuner to the rear panel AUDIO EING. connectors.) Select the
TV channel broadcasting the simulcast programme with the
recorder’s channel select buttons and tune the FM stereo
tuner to the station broadcasting the soundtrack for this TV
programme.
The only difference from the basic recording procedure is an
additional step after step [EJ on page 51.
@Press SIMUL button @ .
Then the SIM indicator will light. With this setting, the video
and audio signals from the built-in tuner will be recorded
on the video and normal audio track and the audio signal
from the FM stereo tuner will be recorded on the hi-fi audio
track.
Notes:
e@After finishing recording, be sure to press the SIMUL button
to switch back to the Tuner.
@While recording simulcast programmes, it might happen
that the hi-fi sound distorts momentarily at switching points
between different programmes. This is not due to any defect
of the unit.
RECORDING A TV PROGRAMME WHILE
RECORDING AN INDEPENDENT AUDIO
SOURCE
Using the “'simulcast’’ recording function, you can record
independent audio and video programmes, because the TV
soundtrack is not lost, but recorded on the normal audio
track. While recording a TV programme, record any audio
source independently.
@Connect an audio component (such as an FM tuner) to the
AUDIO EING. connectors @ .
@Press SIMUL button. The SIM indicator on the FDP will
light.
Notes:
eff you stop recording to avoid unwanted material of the TV
Programme using the PAUSE/STANDB. button, the audio
programme from an external source is also cut.
@lf television broadcasting comes to an end during recording,
the hi-fi sound being recorded from an. external source may
distort. It is recommended that you check the timetable of
TV broadcasts in advance.
After finishing recording, be sure to press the SIMUL button
to switch back to the Tuner; otherwise recording on the
hi-fi audio track from the built-in tuner will not be possible.
USING THE HR-SSO00EG AS AN AUDIO TAPE
DECK
You can record audio only (without recording any video
signal) on the hi-fi audio track. This means you can record
a continuous 8-hour FM programme onto a single cassette
(€-240).
®@Connect an audio source (such as an FM tuner) to the
AUDIO EING. connectors.
Tune the built-in tuner to a vacant channel.
@Press S(MUL button. The SIM indicator on the FDP will
light.

| INDEX SEARCH FUNCTION ,
The Index Search function gives you automatic access to locations on the tape where index codes are recorded. Index codes
are recorded automatically at the beginning of recordings which are started from the Stop or Timer Standby mode, or recorded
manually at any other position during recording or playback. Unnecessary codes can be erased manually during playback. In
neither case is there any effect on the audio or video recordings on the tape. With the HR-SSOO0EG, you can access any one of
up to 9 of these indexed segments in either the forward or reverse direction.
