Marking an index
By pressing the INDEX button during a recording, you can mark an index
signal at any place in the tape. The index signal is marked for five seconds.
If you mark an index at the scene you want to search for, you can easily
search for the scene later.
When you start recording in the stop mode, the index signal is marked
automatically.
If you press the INDEX button while recording, the OINDEX MARK �
indicator appears for seven seconds on the LCD monitor and the VIDEO
OUT1 output (if you have turned on the SUPERIMPOSE switch) and the
index is marked.
If you use a cassette with cassette memory, the index will also be marked
in the cassette memory.

Notes
YYou cannot mark a new index while the OINDEX MARK � indicator is
showing.
YIf you record on a location in the tape where an index has been marked,
the index will be erased. You cannot delete just an index while keeping
the image or sound.
YYou cannot mark an index during playback, duplicate or audio dubbing
operations. The INDEX button is disabled in these operations.
YThe cassette memory space available limits the number of the indexes
that you can mark by pressing the INDEX button. When you use a
previously recorded tape for repeated recording, make more memory
space available by erasing unwanted items using ITEM ERASE or
ERASE ALL on the CM SET menu before you start recording.
To use an index during playback
You will need the DSRM-20 remote control unit (not supplied).
For details on the playback function using the DSRM-20, see OOther Playback
Functions� on page 55 (GB).
