FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - NV-FS200B PANASONIC

Comment brancher mon magnétoscope NV-FS200B au téléviseur ?
Utilisez un câble péritel (SCART) pour relier la prise AV1 du magnétoscope à la prise péritel du téléviseur. Vous pouvez aussi utiliser des câbles RCA pour l'audio/vidéo si votre TV ne dispose pas de péritel.
Comment programmer un enregistrement différé ?
Appuyez sur la touche PROG de la télécommande. Utilisez les touches +/– pour régler la date, l'heure de début et de fin, ainsi que le numéro de chaîne. Validez avec la touche OK. Assurez-vous d'avoir inséré une cassette vierge avec protection d'écriture désactivée.
Que faire si la bande ne se charge pas ?
Vérifiez que la cassette est correctement insérée face avant vers l'avant. Si le problème persiste, débranchez l'appareil quelques minutes puis rebranchez-le. Si le mécanisme est bloqué, contactez un réparateur agréé.
Pourquoi l'image est-elle neigeuse ou instable ?
Vérifiez la connexion de l'antenne et du câble péritel. Nettoyez les têtes vidéo avec une cassette de nettoyage adaptée. Assurez-vous que la bande n'est pas endommagée.
Comment régler l'horloge du magnétoscope ?
Appuyez sur MENU puis sélectionnez Réglage horloge. Utilisez les touches numériques pour entrer la date et l'heure. Le magnétoscope peut aussi se synchroniser automatiquement via le signal télétexte si disponible.
Le magnétoscope n'émet aucun son, que faire ?
Vérifiez le volume du téléviseur et le réglage AUDIO du magnétoscope. Si vous utilisez des câbles séparés, assurez-vous que les câbles audio sont branchés correctement. Essayez une autre cassette.
Comment visionner une bande enregistrée en LP ou EP ?
Le magnétoscope détecte automatiquement la vitesse d'enregistrement. Pendant la lecture, l'indication LP ou EP s'affiche sur le panneau avant. Vous pouvez aussi utiliser la touche PLAY normalement.
Puis-je utiliser le magnétoscope avec un téléviseur moderne ?
Oui, via un adaptateur péritel/HDMI si votre TV n'a pas de péritel. La qualité sera limitée à la résolution VHS (environ 240 lignes).
Comment nettoyer les têtes vidéo ?
Achetez une cassette de nettoyage pour VHS. Insérez-la et lancez la lecture pendant environ 10 secondes. Ne laissez pas la cassette de nettoyage en lecture prolongée pour éviter d'user les têtes.
Que faire en cas de blocage de la cassette ?
Débranchez le magnétoscope quelques minutes. Utilisez un objet fin (stylo) pour débloquer manuellement le mécanisme d'éjection si nécessaire. Si le problème persiste, consultez un professionnel.

Setting Up

Connections

This tells you how to connect with an aerial, TV, etc.

Tuning the TV into your VTR

The VTR supplies signal to the TV set via the RF coaxial cable on channel 36 of the UK broadcasting system. Your TV must be tuned into this channel in order to view the VTR playback picture.

If connection to the TV includes the 21 pin scart cable or S-Video/Audio cable, the playback picture can be viewed by selecting AV on your TV.

The RF coaxia: cable must still be connected as shown on page 9, but the TV need not be tuned to channel 36.

Storing TV Broadcasts into your VTR

The VTR is fitted with its own TV tuner (just like a normal TV set) and can be tuned to receive up to 99 TV broadcast stations.

Setting the Clock of the VTR

The built-in clock is used to activate the timer for automatic recording and must be set to the correct time.

This VTR uses the S-VHS format which makes it possible to obtain high resolution and high picture quality by using the high-performance S-VHS video cassette tapes.

The conventional video sockets of VTRs outputs/inputs a combination of the luminance signal (Y) the monochrome part of the picture and colour signal (C) which are recorded on the video tape. The new S (Separate)-Video Socket allows separate transmission of these two signals to a TV set in order to obtain clearer pictures.

The connection with the S-Video Cable can also be used for playback of a tape that was recorded in the conventional VHS system. The "S" in the "S-Video Socket" stands for "SEPARATED Y/C" not for "S-VHS".

The NICAM Broadcast System

NICAM ■ MONO STEREO M1 2CH V2

NICAM is a 2 Channel sound broadcast system to provide either a high quality stereo sound track or 2 independent MONO sound tracks, M1 and M2.

NICAM programmes are always accompanied by standard sound broadcasts and you can select the desired sound with NICAM/MONO (when recording) or with AUDIO OUT (when playback).

The NICAM digital stereo sound can only be recorded on the Hi-Fi audio track.

When a stereo, dual-soundtrack or mono NICAM programme is being received, the indicators are lit to inform you of the type of broadcast.

Reception of a NICAM Stereo Broadcast

When the STEREO indicator is lit, set NICAM/MONO to NICAM to be able to record on the Hi-Fi sound track in stereo.

The scart lead must also be connected to a stereo TV in order to hear the NICAM sound in stereo.

Reception of a NICAM Dual-Sound Broadcast

When the M1 and M2 indicators are lit, set NICAM/MONO to NICAM if you want to record both channels on the Hi-Fi sound track. M1 is the left-hand channel and M2 is the right-hand channel.

Reception of a NICAM Monaural Broadcast

When a NICAM monaural broadcast is being received, only the M1 indicator is lit. To hear such a signal on both channels and to record it on both channels of the Hi-Fi track, set NICAM/MONO to NICAM.

- To record the regular sound (ordinary normal sound) on the FM audio tracks when a NICAM programme is received, set NICAM/MONO to MONO.

Important Note for the NICAM System

When this VTR tuner is switched on, it will automatically switch to a NICAM broadcast. if NICAM is being transmitted. During test transmissions, it is possible that the sound received doesn't correspond to the picture being viewed. In order to receive a synchronized sound and picture, select monaural sound with either AUDIO OUT or with NICAM/MONO. This will only apply until NICAM transmissions are fully operational.

At this time the NICAM signal is transmitted on stereo channels only, since the M1 and M2 formats are not yet available. Even if the soundtrack is in MONO the stereo indicator will remain illuminated.

Operations

1RTo repeat playback from the beginning of tape to the end of the recorded segment, press REPEAT.
2ZERO STOPTo stop at the counter position 0:00.00 after rewinding or fast-forwarding, press ZERO STOP during stop mode.

Automatic switching on

When a cassette is inserted, the VTR turns itself on automatically.

Automatic playback

When a cassette without an erasure prevention tab is inserted, the VTR starts playback automatically.

Automatic rewinding

When the tape reaches its end during recording (except for OTR and timer recording) or playback, it will automatically be rewound to the beginning.

Automatic switching off and ejection

When the VTR is switched off, an inserted cassette can be ejected simply by pressing EJECT. The VTR will eject the cassette and automatically turn itself off again.

Automatic head cleaning

This VTR automatically removes tape particles and dust from the video heads to ensure continuously superior picture quality. While the head cleaner is working, some mechanical noise can be heard from the VTR. This is not a malfunction.

Insert the NTSC cassette tape and play back by pressing PLAY.

Note:

- NTSC is the TV broadcasting system used in U.S.A., Japan, and some other countries. PAL is another TV broadcasting system used in U.K., Germany and many other parts of the world. This VTR will not replay or Record tapes on the SECAM broadcasting system.

NTSC 4.43 is a modified version of the PAL broadcasting system to allow most UK TV's to reproduce a colour picture when an NTSC tape is replayed on this VTR. However due to the system change, the picture may shrink, roll or not reproduce colour on some Televisions. - During playback of NTSC recordings, the Tape Counter does not function correctly.

Scanner Preparation

Set the Digital Scanner ON/OFF Switch to ON.

If no operation is performed for more than 25 seconds (4 minutes during setting of the clock time), the scanner will automatically switch over to the power-saving standby condition and the lamp will go off. (In this case, if bar codes have already been read but not yet transmitted to the VTR, the data will be cancelled.)

When the Digital Scanner On/Off Switch is set to ON but the lamp is not lit, set the switch to OFF and then ON again.

Scanning adaptor 1 2 Bar code Beep

Reading the bar codes

1 Fit the digital scanner to the scanning adaptor.

2 Trace the bar code quickly in the direction of the arrow, ensuring that you trace it completely past the last bar. The "Beep" sound indicates that the bar code has been read completely.

When the Bar Codes Cannot be Read

Although the lamp in the tip of the Bar Code Reading Section lights up:

●No figures appear in the Display

- No beep sounds is heard:

The tip of the Bar Code Reading Section is probably clogged with dirt.

1 Hole Cap 2 Lamp

Cleaning

1 Remove the cap of the Bar Code Reading Section.
- Remove dirt and dust from the hole of the cap.

2 Gently wipe the tip of the lamp with a soft cloth.

●Reattach the cap and lock it.

Remote Control Modes

Adjust the remote control mode of the Digital Scanner to the same remote control mode (VTR 1 or VTR 2) as selected on the VTR itself.

When Remote Control Mode "VTR 2" is selected on the VTR

Trace the "VTR 2" bar code on the Programming Sheet. - "VTR 2" will appear in the Bar Code Reader Display. When the "VTR 1" bar code is traced, the "VTR 2" indication will disappear and the remote control mode is changed back to "VTR 1".

Precautions

Please read these cautions before you operate this VTR.

Cassette Compartment Door

When first unpacking the unit, you may notice that the cassette compartment door is partially open. This condition is due to the operation of a safety device designed to protect the unit from vibration during shipment; it is not a malfunction. When the AC mains lead is connected to a mains outlet, the door will return to its original position.

Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature

If the VTR is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may form on the tape and inside the VTR.

Humidity and Dust

Avoid places where there is high humidity or much dust, which may cause damage to internal parts.

Do Not Obstruct the Ventilation Holes

The Ventilation holes prevent abnormal increase in temperature. Do not block or cover these holes. Especially avoid covering the holes with soft materials such as cloth or paper.

Keep away from High Temperature

Keep the VTR away from extreme direct heat such as direct sunlight, heating radiators, or closed automobiles.

Keep Magnets away

Never bring a magnet or magnetized object near the VTR because it will adversely affect the performance of the VTR.

No Fingers or Other Objects Inside

Touching internal parts of this VTR is dangerous, and may cause serious damage to the VTR. Do not attempt to disassemble the VTR. There are no user serviceable parts inside.

Keep Water away

Keep the VTR away form flower vases. tubs, sinks, etc. CAUTION: If liquids are spilled into the VTR, serious damage could occur. If you spill any liquid into the VTR, consult qualified service personnel.

Lightning

To avoid damage by lightning, disconnect the aerial plug from the VTR.

Cleaning the VTR

Wipe the VTR with a clean, dry cloth. Never use cleaning fluid, or other chemicals. And do not use compressed air to remove dust.

Stacking

Place the VTR in a horizontal position, and do not place anything heavy on it.

Video Head Clogging

The video heads place picture signals on the tape during recording and read picture signals from the tape during playback and they are, therefore, of critical importance for the picture quality. To ensure that they can always provide optimum picture quality, this VTR is equipped with an Auto Head Cleaning Function that removes tape particles and dust from the video heads. However, if the VTR is used over extremely long periods of time, these heads may still become dirty and clogged. In such a case, the signals can no longer be recorded correctly, and the playback picture will be distorted accordingly. This is the case, for example, during the playback of a tape, the sound is reproduced normally, but no picture is seen, or the picture is greatly distorted. When such a symptom occurs consult your dealer for further advice.

Condensation may form in the VTR if:

• The VTR is in a room where the heater has just been turned on.
- The VTR is in a room with steam or high humidity.
• The VTR is brought from cold surroundings into a well-heated room.
- The VTR is suddenly brought from cool surroundings, such as an air-conditioned room or car, to a place which is hot and humid.

Note:

Do not operate the VTR for at least 1 hour if any of the above conditions occur.

This VTR does not incorporate a dew sensor.

Tape Care

Some do's and don'ts on tape care.

DO:

1) Use a good quality branded tape, such as Panasonic.
2) Keep in the Box supplied with your tape, or a video case, when not in use.
3) Try to use all the tape on a cassette by making recordings not only at the tape start but also in the middle and end sections. This will avoid many repeated recordings at the beginning of the tape resulting in premature wear.
4) Take care to insert a tape correctly in to the VTR to avoid damage.

DO NOT:

1) Expose the tape to high humidity or temperature.
2) Expose to liquid.
3) Expose to dust particles by storing directly on a carpet for example.
4) Use a damaged tape or attempt to repair.
5) Dismantle the cassette housing.
6) Attempt to lift the front cassette flap or touch the tape surface.
