Figure 23. Basic Record Setup Menu
To program the VCR recording parameters:
1. Press the LIVE/VCR (duplex) or DISPLAY/RECORD (simplex) button for approxi-
mately three seconds until the Record Setup menu appears. Type the password, if
requested. The currently selected menu item blinks.
2. Use the arrow buttons to move between items on the screen.
3. When the menu item you desire is highlighted (blinking), press the +/- button to cycle
through the options to select the one you want.
Record Speeds
Sets the VCR’s normal and alarm recording speeds. Setting speeds in the Record
Setup menu also sets speeds in the System Setup and Custom VCR Setup menus.
VCR Type
See Table C. If your VCR is not listed among the options, do either of the following:
• Select UNIVERSAL. In the recording speed menu item at the top of the screen,
select an option your VCR will support.
• Select CUSTOM. Then go to CONFIGURE CUSTOM VCR and press the +/-
button to access the Custom VCR Setup menu. The switch interval can be
changed only while in this setting.
VCR Video Format
Composite is standard video on a coaxial cable. SVHS is higher resolution video on a
special cable. This feature is not available on monochrome units.
VCR Switch Pulse
ENABLED + means the multiplexer waits for a positive head switching pulse from the
VCR. If the multiplexer does not get a pulse from the VCR (because of a broken wire
or the VCR does not give a pulse in some modes), it may appear the multiplexer is not
working properly.
ENABLED – (minus sign) means the multiplexer waits for a negative head switching
pulse from the VCR.
