used for recording and the internal limiters (if fitted) NV-LIM #7031 130 000 will
be active and turned on (in the limiter sub-menu). When recording, the red led
beside the main function selector will be alight.

take number without interruption in the recording process. The position "No

Shift Key (13)
Menu mode.
The SHIFT key must be pressed (and kept pressed) in order to move through the
menus on the LCD display on the front panel of the NAGRA V. When it is pressed
the five grey transport keys operate using their shifted ARROW features. As soon as
the SHIFT key is released then it will act as an ESC and the display will return to the
main display screen chosen. While in the menu mode the STOP key becomes the
EXECUTE function. When the shift key is pressed rapidly twice, it stays in the menu
mode (Flag 1 on the display is on). To remove the menu mode, press the SHIFT
key once again or move the main rotary selector to another position. A full
description of the menus is explained later in this manual.
