Troubleshooting Guide
Slow
FF
and
REW
speed or varying speed during record/playback:
This is a symptom of low batteries. Plugging in the
AC
Adapter should
cure the problem. It is recommended that you plug in the
AC
Adapter
when changing batteries to avoid losing clock and timer settings. If the
batteries are removed and the
AC
Adapter is not plugged in, all clock
and timer settings will be lost within three minutes.
I can’t record on my tape:
Cassette tapes have a “record protection” tab on the bottom of the cas-
sette that can be removed to prevent the tape from being erased or
recorded over. If the tab is removed, you will not be able to record on
this tape. Removing the tab prohibits the REC button on the
VersaCorder from being pushed down.
I only get the room noise when trying to record:
Please read the instructions on
LINE IN
on page 9 & 16 before record-
ing. Your low-level audio source must be plugged into the
LINE IN
jack
on the side of the VersaCorder before recording from an external audio
device. If nothing is plugged into the
LINE IN
jack, the internal micro-
phone on the VersaCorder is activated and will record audio from your
room.
Audio on playback is distorted:
If audio is distorted on playback be sure the audio coming from your
receiver is at a low level. Distorted audio can also be caused by an old
tape or low batteries.
My recorder is not recording at the right time:
If your recorder does not record at the right time be sure the
AM
and
PM
and
DAY
are correct. Also make sure you have set a different
ON
and
OFF
Time. If you are recording a four hour talk show that starts at
11:00
PM
on Monday be sure to change the
OFF
time
DAY
to Tuesday.
I keep getting a beep in my recordings:
Check the
BEEP
switch on the bottom of the VersaCorder and make
sure it is set to
OFF
.
