then simultaneously press the CH1 and CH4

buttons in the upper row (EXT row).

In this mode, video and audio signals input to the VTR

are output after passing through internal electric circuits,

but not through magnetic conversion circuits such as

heads and tapes. This can be used to check input signals

and for adjusting input signal levels.
