Timer Recordings

With this connection, you may set a timer recording as described on pages 34-37. However, you must remember the following:

You can only program a timer recording for one channel at a time.

Set the TV and the VCR to the Cable Box/DSS Receiver out- put channel (channel 03 or 04).

When you are prompted to enter the channel you want to record, select channel 03 or 04 (the Cable Box/DSS Receiver output channel). (This is step 5 on page 35.)

Set your Cable Box/DSS Receiver to the channel you want to record.

Leave the Cable Box/DSS Receiver on while you are recording.

Helpful Hints

With this hookup, channels cannot be changed at the VCR. You must select channels at the Cable Box/DSS Receiver.

You can not view a channel other than the one you are recording (the instructions on page 32 do not work with this hookup).

You cannot program channels with this hookup (as discussed on page 12).

If you set up the VCR’s internal Cable Box Controller, the VCR will select the Cable Box channel auto- matically during a timer recording. You must place the Cable Box on top of the VCR. Details are on pages 38-39.

Leave the Cable Box/DSS Receiver on while you are recording.
