Frequently Asked Questions - SRN-873S SAMSUNG

How do I set the timer recording on my Samsung SRN-873S?
Press the Timer button on the remote. Use the arrow keys to set the date, start time, end time, and channel. Press OK to confirm. Make sure the VCR is in standby mode and a tape is inserted.
Why is there no picture or sound when playing a tape?
Check that the TV is set to the correct input (AV or RF). Ensure the tape is properly inserted and not damaged. Clean the video heads using a dry cleaning tape or manual cleaning.
Can I connect the VCR to a modern TV?
Yes, use the composite RCA (yellow, white, red) outputs. If your TV has only HDMI, use an HDMI converter. Alternatively, use the RF output and tune the TV to channel 3 or 4.
How do I clean the video heads?
Use a dry video head cleaning tape as per its instructions. Do not use alcohol or abrasive materials. If issues persist, consult a technician.
The VCR ejects the tape immediately after insertion. What's wrong?
This could indicate a tape protection tab missing (for recording), or a mechanical issue. Check if the tape is fully rewound. If the problem continues, the loading mechanism may need repair.
How do I program the remote control to operate my TV?
The SRN-873S remote may have limited TV control. Refer to the manual for programming codes. Typically, hold the TV button, enter a code, and test power/volume.
What type of tapes can I use?
Use standard VHS tapes (T-120 or T-160). The VCR automatically detects tape length for recording time. Avoid rewinding damaged tapes.
My VCR makes a clicking noise but doesn't play. What should I do?
A clicking noise often indicates a stuck mechanism or faulty gears. Unplug the VCR, wait 10 seconds, and try again. If it persists, belts may need replacement.
How do I reset the VCR?
Unplug the power cord for 30 seconds, then plug it back in. This clears minor electronic glitches. Your timer settings may be lost.
Where can I find spare parts for the SRN-873S?
Check online retailers or electronics repair shops for VCR belts, video heads, and power supplies. Always use parts compatible with Samsung VCRs.

Note that an excessive internal temperature of the product may cause a system failure or a shortened product life (see the right figure). Keep in mind the following instructions before installing the product.

Temperature Unit: °C| Life (Unit: HOURS) | Value | |---|---| | 2,000 | 105 | | 5,000 | 90 | | 10,000 | 80 | | 20,000 | 70 | | 50,000 | 60 | | 100,000 | 50 | | 200,000 | 30 | One Year: 24HR X 365 DAY = 8,760 HR

[Figure 1]

When mounting the product on a rack, comply with the following instructions.

  1. Please ensure that the rack inside is not sealed.
  2. Please ensure the air is circulated through the inlet/outlet as shown in the picture.
  3. If you pile up the products or other rack-mount devices as shown in figure 2, secure room for ventilation or install a vent.
  4. For natural air convection, place the inlet at the bottom of the rack and the outlet on top.
  5. It is strongly recommended that a fan motor is installed at the inlet and the outlet for air circulation. (Please fit a filter at the inlet to screen dust or foreign substances.)
  6. Please maintain the temperature inside the rack or surrounding areas between 0°C ~ 40°C (32°F ~ 104°F) as shown in Figure 1.

Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions:

A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

Illustration of a server rack with heat exchangers and ventilation fans (no text or symbols).

[Figure 2]SAMSUNG SRN-873S - Checking the installation environment - 3

B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading. D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern. E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

RACK INSTALLATION

Install the Bracket-Rack as shown in the figure, and then fasten the screws on both sides (2 screws on each side).

- Fix the screws not to be loosened by vibrations.

We are not liable for any damage to the HDD incurred by user's carelessness or miss use.

■ Cases might cause damage to HDD or recorded data

To minimize the risk of data loss from a damaged HDD, please backup data as often as possible.

If exposed to shock when disassembling or installing, data stored in the hard disk may be damaged.

A sudden power failure or turning off the product while in HDD operation may damage the hard disk drive.

HDD or files stored inside may be damaged if the main body is moved or impacted during the HDD operation.

Cautions when installing a HDD

  1. Do not apply excessive force to the HDD.
  2. Pay attention so as not to lose the disassembly screws or accessories.

If the screws or accessories are not put together correctly, the product may break down or not operate properly.

To edit camera profile

When a camera is added for the first time, it is added as the default profile of H.264, MJPEG in order temporarily.

To change its profile, refer to "Setting the camera recording profile" (Page 91) or "Live Setting" (Page 81).

SAMSUNG SRN-873S - To edit camera profile - 1

In case of NVR, if you set 3 different profiles for live, recording and network profile, one camera will produce video streams accordingly, having different stream formats. Especially, note that the live profile may vary depending on the used screen split mode.

For cameras, if applied with one profile only, the produced frame rate is fixed as the profile specifies; if applied with multiple profiles, produced video stream's frame rate is not guaranteed. For example, if applied with 2 profiles of 30fps, the camera may transmit streams at 20fps.

If a channel's data transfer exceeds the defined allowed limit, it may affect other channels and may force switching to recording even when the channel is configured to recording mode. For Key Frame recording channels, the icon for limited recording appears on the top side of the live screen.

A channel displayed in yellow indicates that the recorded data is not being transferred from the camera and that the recording is being performed temporarily using another profile on the camera.

Check the channel information to see the applied profile to the channel listed in yellow.

A channel displayed in orange indicates that the amount of inputted data is greater than the permitted data amount.

In this case, it is impossible to record all of the incoming frames.

Instead, only part of the frames (1 or 2 frames per second) can be recorded. To resolve this issue, you must set the permitted data amount to be greater than the amount of inputted data.

Refer to notes on "Record status". (Page 48)
