Cassette Tapes
High quality 110-minute tapes are recommended for use in the
VersaCorder.ln tests, these tapes provide a balance between maximum
play/recording time and prolonged tape life. Audio cassette tapes are
available up to 150 minutes ,however ,the tape material is thin and may
stretch or break during recording or playback. With the extra long tapes,
any cassette machine is more likely to "eat" the tape.
Inserting Cassette Tapes
1) P ress the EJECT Button to open the lid.
EJECT
2) lnsert the casette.
Ribbon end out.
3) Once the tape is insertd correctly, close the cassette door gently.
The VersaCorder has the ability to record in NORMAL speed for best
audio quality.When extened recordings of talk radio, speeches and
lectures, telephone conversations, or any format that does not require a
high-fidelety recording is desired ,the VersaCorder can be switched into
QUARTER speed mode.This mode will record 4times longer than
NORMAL speed , however,record quality for music is reduced.lf a
rdcording is made in QUARTER speed ,it can only be played back in a
QUARTER speed player (unless you want it to sound like a chipmunk).

Tapes are more likely to wind around the tape mechanism and create a
Problem. If a 110 minute tape continues to wind around the mechanism
then try a new tape or rewind and fast forward the tape before trying
again. If the recorder continues to jam up, even on new tapes, your unit
may need servicing or replacing.

Audio Sources
LINE IN/OUT:
LINE IN is a special connection that is compatible with any LINE OUT
(or headphone jack), commonly found on portable CD players,
AM/FM/shortwave receivers,computer audio output, etc. LINE LEVEL
Refers to a low level audio that does not change when you increase the
Volume of the receiver or other audio device. You can connect the LINE
OUT of any device through the supplied audio cables into the
VersaCorder's LINE IN and record the audio from that device. The
headphone jack of a radio or other device can be used if there is not a
LINE OUT available. Since the headphone jack will vary with the volume control, it is best to do a test recording and play back to obtain
best results.
MIC IN:
Just about any microphone will work well with the Versacorder. The jack
is a 1/8" (3.5mm).

DC wall Adapter: The DC wall adapter should be positioned so it
is not walked on, pinched, or have items placed on top of it. All
power and recording cables should be routed away from walkways or areas of foot traffic to avoid being tripped on. Always
unplug the DC power adapter by gripping the adapter unit and
pulling it out of the wall socket. Never pull on the cord. Always
operate the VersaCorder using the correct supplied DC wall
adapter. Adapters that are not correctly rated can damage the
recorder. If you are not sure of the correct DC wall adapter,
consult your dealer.

Each device that you connect to
the phone line draws power from
t h e p h o n e l i n e . We r e f e r t o t h i s
power draw as the device's
ringer equivalence number, or
REN. The REN is on the bottom
of your teltphone cassette
recorder.
If you are using more than one
device on the line, add up all the
RENs. If the total is more than
five, your phone might not ring
and your telephone cassette
recorder might not record. In
rural areas, a total REN of three
might impair ringer operation. If
ringer operation is impaired,
disconnect one of the devices
from the line.
