In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape. There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the tape where the recorder switches from SP to LP (or EP) mode. The Auto SPLP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly with any tapes longer than E-180 or with some tapes of shorter lengths. 22 EN SPECIAL FEATURES Remote A/B Code Switching The remote control is capable of controlling two JVC video recorders independently; one set to respond to the remote control's A code control signals and another set to respond to B code control signals. The remote control is preset to send A code signals because your video recorder is initially set to respond to A code signals. You can easily modify your video recorder to respond to B code signals.
