Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land

mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically

with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site

survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Model 240-020-505 is

used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Model 240-020-505 should be observed to verify

normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-

orienting or relocating the Model 240-020-505.

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Precautions for DVD Recorder Use

Ⅵ Storage & Usage Locations

The storage and usage of this DVD recorder in the following

types of location should be avoided.

● Areas at temperatures which deviate by a significant degree

above or below the permitted service temperature range

(i.e., 5°C to 35°C).

ⅥVideo and audio signals from this DVD recorder’s input terminals can be recorded to

Precautions Regarding Condensation

DVD-R / DVD-RW (video mode only) or DVD+R / DVD+RW. (☞ Page 26)

ⅥCondensation

The types of signals that can be used are as follows.

When cold water is poured into a glass and droplets of

water form on its outer surface, this moisture is referred

to as “condensation”.

Video: Composite video, YC separate, DV signals (including audio) or DVI signals

Audio: Analog audio or DV signals (including video)

● Areas at humidities which deviate by a significant degree

above or below the permitted service humidity range (i.e.,

20% to 80% RH).

● Areas where a large amount of dust or sand is present.

● Areas where the DVD recorder may come into contact with

oily smoke or steam, such as in kitchens or in their

immediate vicinity.

● Areas that are unstable or where significant vibration occurs.

● Areas where condensation occurs readily.

● Areas where strong magnetic fields are generated by

transformers, motors, or the like.

● Areas where transceivers, mobile phones, and other

wireless-communication devices are present.

● Areas that are subjected to X-ray irradiation or where

corrosive gases are present. (This precaution must be

strictly observed.)

ⅥWhen condensation occurs

Condensation can cause water droplets to adhere to the

DVD recorder’s internal lens, thus making normal

operation impossible.

ⅥCondensation occurs easily in the following situations,

and the appropriate care should be taken.

• When the DVD recorder is moved from a cold location

into a warm room.

• When the room containing the DVD is rapidly heated.

• When an air conditioner’s air duct is pointing straight at

the DVD recorder.

ⅥIn situations where it is likely that condensation will occur,

remove any DVD that may be present in this DVD recorder

and then turn the power on. As the interior heats up,

condensation will be less likely to occur.

ⅥCondensation is a principal cause of the inability to play

discs and other similar problems. In this type of situation,

allow the DVD recorder to remain inactive with its power

on for several hours. If the problem persists after this

period of time has elapsed, contact either the store where

this DVD recorder was purchased or your Authorized

dealer.

ⅥA wide range of recording methods are supported. The appropriate method is to be

selected in accordance with the intended mode of use.

● The REC, PAUSE, and STOP buttons on the front panel can be used for standard operations. (☞ Page 38)

● Recording operations can be carried out using the REC CONTROL panel. Furthermore, a keyboard can also be used when

recording via this panel. (☞ Page 40)

●

Recording can be operated via the external switch that is connected to the foot switch terminal. (☞ Page 39)

ⅥThe title and chapter menus can be created either automatically or manually. (☞ Page 44)

Five different patterns have been provided as display styles for the title and chapter menus.Each of these patterns is characterized

by different thumbnail characteristics (i.e., number, position, and size) and background images displayed on the title and

chapter menu screens.

When a display style is selected during the recording of content to a DVD, this DVD recorder will automatically create the title

and chapter menus in accordance with this style.

The DVD MENU screen can be used to modify the thumbnail and background display characteristics of each of the display

styles.

In addition, the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen and the CHAPTER MENU EDIT screen can be used to modify the display style and

thumbnail images for chapter menus, and also to input chapter names and comments. The input of names or comments is

carried out using a keyboard connected to one of the recorder’s USB terminals.

Details Regarding Discs (continued)

DVD Data Configuration

Front Panel

Region Codes

Generally speaking, the content recorded on a DVD is separated

into large units referred to as “titles”. A unique number called a

“title number” is assigned to each of these titles, and as a result,

any title can be immediately accessed using its title number. In

addition, each title can be divided into smaller units referred to

as “chapters”. Similarly, a unique number called a “chapter

number” is assigned to each of these chapters, and this allows

any chapter to be immediately accessed using its chapter

number.

Each recording made to a disc is stored as a single title. In this,

each pressing of the STOP button to leave Recording mode

constitutes a different recording. (This action is also referred to

as “title closing”.)

One of six numbers referred to as “region codes” is assigned to

DVD content to control the global regions in which this content

may be viewed. If a DVD’s region code does not correspond to

the region code of the DVD player being used, it will not be

possible to play the disc.

● This DVD recorder assigns the region code “ALL” to the discs

that it records.

similar disc that has been recorded on using the DVD recorder.

● If the recording on a DVD-RW / DVD+RW is to be performed once again from the

beginning, erase the disc’s data using ERASE from the DISC MENU screen. (☞ Page 28)

Version 1.0 of the DVD-RW standards does not support video-mode recording, and for this reason, the corresponding

discs cannot be used.

ⅥIn terms of recording characteristics, DVD-R / DVD-RW (video mode) and DVD+R / DVD+RW differ as follows.

DVD-R / DVD+R : Each disc can be recorded only once. Erasing of data and re-recording are not possible.

DVD-RW (video mode) / DVD+RW: After viewing a disc, all data can be erased and it can be used to record new content.

On-screen settings

Use the setting screens to select the appropriate recording signal, setup the recording

conditions, and make other necessary settings. (☞ Page 29)

The condition of the disc being used will dictate the available recording options as follows.

Each recorded DVD contains title and chapter menus that provide information relating to its titles and chapters.

Whenever recording is carried out, title numbers, chapter numbers, and thumbnails are automatically generated in order to create

the title and chapter menus.

Specifically, the frames from the start of individual recordings are used as thumbnails for the title menu.

In a similar way, the frames at which chapter marks have been inserted are used as thumbnails for chapter menus.(These thumbnails

may be modified later on.) The title menu will become the top thumbnail of the chapter menu.

Recording with the Front Panel

Recording with the Front Panel (continued)

This DVD recorder recording operations can be carried out in two different ways — namely, using the buttons provided on the front

panel and using the on-screen REC CONTROL panel. In the latter case, furthermore, recording operations can be performed using

a keyboard. The following section, however, will provide a description of recording using the front panel buttons.

On a DVD, the section of video recorded between the start of recording and pressing of the STOP button to end recording is stored

as a single title, and a unique title number is assigned to each of these sections. A single disc can contain up to 99 different titles.

In addition, each title can be separated into a number of different chapters by inserting chapter marks at the appropriate points, and

each title can contain up to 99 chapters.

6. End recording and remove the disc.

Note

Depending on how the disc will be used, one of two different procedures is

implemented at this time.

When recording is stopped or a title is

closed, the message will appear on the

VIDEO LINE OUT,Y/C OUT, or DVI OUT

monitor.

● If more content will be recorded to the disc using this DVD recorder:

Simply press the OPEN/CLOSE button and remove the disc. (Do not finalize

the disc before it is removed.)

* The AUTO FINALIZE item on the DISC menu screen will have to be set to

OFF.

● If the disc is to be played on a different DVD player:

Finalize the disc, press the OPEN/CLOSE button, and then remove the disc.

For more details regarding finalizing, refer to page 43.

Information relating to titles and chapters is stored on a disc in the form of title and chapter menus. When the disc is being played,

therefore, the title and chapter menus can be used to access specific sections of stored video and audio.
