VCP Dew Sensor - Enhance Indicator

When damage-causing moisture condensation is detected within the VCP, the dew sensor circuit automatically prevents the VCP from accepting or playing tapes. When the dew sensor has been activated the enhance indicator, located on the VCP, will flash.

To prevent damaging a video tape that is in the VCP when the enhance Indicator is flashing, press EJECT and remove the tape. Then, be sure the VCP is on so it can warm up and dry any accumulated moisture. When the enhance Indicator stops flashing, the VCP can return to full operation.
