Drawings and photos of the Marantz tape recorder as well as complete
operating instructions are given in the Marantz operator manual that
accompanies your DSS-900-KT system. The manual is stored in the
accessory pouch of the DSS-900-KT.
Whenever loading a tape into the Marantz recorder, make sure that:
• The tape is fully rewound.
• You are not about to overwrite an existing recording.
• The tape is not write protected.
3.Recorder
The RECORDER section contains a single LED
and single switch, both of which relate to the
Marantz tape recorder built into your DSS-
900-KT.
• POWER ON lights up when the POWER
switch located below it is in MANUAL or
when the audio level is above squelch
and the AUTO mode has enabled the
recorder power.
• In the AUTO mode [carrier activation mode
in surveillance terms], the Marantz will
activate if the audio signal rises above the
squelch level set on the recorder front
panel. For this to happen, the TX and RX
have to be locked together on the TX
signal, and the Marantz tape recorder has
to be set to RECORD.
• In the MANUAL mode, the recorder is
always powered up and will run if so
commanded from its front panel.
