RECORDING MECHANISM OF ALCA OPERATION (CT-07D) The operation of the ALCA system is variable in two ways; (1) between before and after the AUTO BLE XD system setting, and; (2) between the digital input and analog input. (1) The recording level is controlled according to the standard allowable level which has been set previously for each tape type (I, II, IV). The characteristic of the tape is detected during the tuning of the AUTO BLE XD system. After this, the recording level is controlled by determining the maximum allowable level which can be used in recording according to the tape characteristic. (2) The optimum recording level is set automatically according to the allowable level set in (1). The recording level is determined so that the full-bit data (loudest signal) becomes the allowable level recorded on the tape. • The ALCA system cannot be used in tape copying. • During parallel recording, the ALCA system functions according to the tape with the lower allowable level. • The manual recording level control is possible only in the mode in which the ALCA system is deactivated and the analog input is selected. • Any of the Dolby NR types can be used together with the ALCA system. Changing the Dolby NR type after the recording level adjustment by the ALCA system does not affect the ALCA effect. • Pressing the ALCA button in the middle of record or recording mute mode cannot cancel the ALCA system. • The data set by the ALCA system is retained in the standby mode of the unit as well as after the power cord has been unplugged or during timer recording. AUTO BLE XD TUNING CT-07D: both Deck I and II CT-05D: Deck II only (See page 14 DIGITAL SUPER AUTO BLE XD) 1. Load a tape in Deck II (or I). • The AUTO BLE XD does not work when the erasure prevention tabs of the loaded cassette tape have been broken off. 2. Set the REV MODE switch to = or (see page 15). 3. Press the BLE XD button of DECK II (or I). The II (or I) indicator will flash in the AUTO BLE XD display for about 30 seconds, after which it will light steadily. The tape will be forwarded for approximately one second after pressing the start button so that recording will start from the recordable portion of the tape. The operation is completed when the tape is rewound to its original position. When tuning both decks in sequence 1. Load tapes in both decks. 2. Set the REV MODE switch to (RELAY/SKIP). 3. Press the BLE XD button of DECK L SUPER AUTO BLE XD tuning will be performed on DECK I and DECK II, respectively. • If the BLE XD button of DECK II is pressed, the tuning will stop after only DECK 11 is tuned. • A tuning signal will be recorded on the cassette in the cas- sette deck when using AUTO BLE XD. The music and other information already recorded on this cassette will be erased from the point where tuning starts. Error display • If the old tape, the tape end or the leader (white portion) immedi- ately prior to the tape end is reached during AUTO BLE XD operation, tuning becomes impossible. That means recording will stop immediately and the counter indicator will display the following (flashing) message: "Err". In this case, press the BLE XD button again to reset, and record without AUTO BLE XD tuning. 24 En/Fr ENREGISTREMENT PRINCIPE DU FONCTIONNEMENT DE L'ALCA (CT-07D) Le fonctionnement du systeme ALCA varie selon (1) que le reglage du systeme AUTO BLE XD n'a pas commence ou est terming, et (2) qu'il s'agit d'un signal numerique ou analogique. (1) Le niveau d'enregistrement est commande en fonction du niveau standard permis tel qu'il a ate precedemment defini pour cheque type d bande (I, II, Les caracteristiques de la bande sont determinees au moment de la calibration du systeme AUTO BLE XD. Cela fait, le niveau d'enregistrement est regle par la determination du niveau maximal permis qu'il est possible d'utiliser au cours de l'enregistrement compte tenu des caracteristiques de la bande. (2) Le niveau d'enregistrement optimal est regle automatiquement en fonction du niveau permis defini en (11. Le niveau d'enregistrement est regle de maniere que le mot de poids le plus eleve (c'est-b-dire le signal le plus intense) devienne le niveau d'enregistrement permis sur la bande. • Le systeme ALCA ne peut pas etre utilise lors de la copie dune bande. • Lors de plusieurs enregistrements en parallele, le systeme ALCA tient compte de la bande dont le niveau maximal permis est le plus faible. • Le reglage manuel du niveau d'enregistrement nest possible que dans la mesure ou le systeme ALCA a ate place hors service et que ('entree choisie est analogique. • Tous les reducteurs de bruit Dolby peuvent etre utilises conjointement au systeme ALCA. Par ailleurs, choisir un autre type de reducteur de bruit Dolby alors que le reglage du niveau d'enregistrement a deja ate realise par le systeme ALCA, ne modifie en rien les effets de ce systeme. • Une pression sur la touche ALCA pendant un enregistrement ou pendant un arret d'enregistrement, ne permet pas d'abandonner le systeme ALCA. • Les donnees determinees par le systeme ALCA sont conservees lorsque I'appareil est place en veille, ou bien que la fiche du cordon d'alimentation est debranchee, et sont utilisees lors d'un enregistrement commande par programmateur. CALIBRATION GRACE AU SYSTEME AUTO BLE XD CT-07D: Pour les duex Platines I et II CT-05D: Platine II seulement (Reportez-vous a la page 14, DIGITAL SUPER AUTO BLE XD) 1. Mettre une cassette en place dans la Platine II (ou I). • La fonction AUTO BLE XD ne fonctionne pas lorsque les segments de prevention d'effacement de la cassette chargee ont ate brises. 2. Regler le commutateur REV MODE sur la position = ou (voir la page 15). 3. Appuyer sur la touche BLE XD de la Platine II (ou I). L'indicateur II lou I) clignotera dans l'affichage AUTO BLE XD pendant environ 30 secondes, puis restera allume. La bande sera avancee pendant environ une seconde apres la pression sur la touche de dernarrage de sorte que l'enregistrement commence a partir de la partie eriregistrable de la bande. L'operation est terminee lorsque la position de debut est reprise. Lors de ('accord des deux platines en sequence 1. Mettre des cassettes dans les deux platines. 2. Regler le commutateur REV MODE en position (RELAY/SKIP). 3. Appuyer sur la touche BLE XD de la Platine I. L'accord SUPER AUTO BLE XD commence de la Platine I et continue sur la Platine • Si la touche BLE XD de la Platine II est enfoncee, ('accord s'arretera apres ('accord de la seule Platine • Un signal d'accord sera enregistre sur la cassette dans la platine cassette lors de ('utilisation de AUTO BLE XD. La musique et les autres informations deja enregistrees sur cette cassette seront effacees depuis le point de debut de ('accord. Affichage d'erreur • Si une partie usagee de la bande, l'extremite de la bande ou la bande amorce (portion claire) qui se trouve immediatement avant la fin de la bande, est atteinte pendant le fonctionnement du systeme AUTO BLE XD, la calibration est impossible. Cela signifie que l'enregistrement cesse immediatement tandis que le compteur affiche le message "Err" (clignotant) pour signaler cette situation d'erreur. En ce cas, appuyez une nouvelle fois sur la touche BLE XD et procedez a l'enregistrement sans faire usage de la calibration que permet d'obtenir le systeme AUTO BLE XD .
