Satellite Receiver Users

To timer-record a satellite broadcast using Express Timer Programming:

1 Perform "Satellite Receiver Control Setting" (pg. 12). 2 Perform steps 1 10. In step 6, press the NUMBER key "0" to change "TV PROG" to "SAT". The display panel

shows "L2" for the preset position. Then press PR +/– to enter the preset position for the satellite broadcast. In step 8, you cannot set PDC to ON.

3 Leave the satellite receiver's power on.

PDC Recording

Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this system, special code signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals. These code signals control your video recorder and have precedence over the advertised times which you may have preset into the timer. This means that your recorder will start and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end — even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed from what has been advertised. PDC is currently available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC service in some areas. All channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme listing guide for latest informa- tion. If the channel you intend to record does not offer a PDC service your recorder will not start recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to "OFF" if PDC is not available on your selected channel.

(step 8 in the left column).

NOTES:

Set the start time (PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time than advertised will result in no recording.

PDC recording is also possible when a satellite receiver or a cable system is connected to AV2 (L-2) IN/DECODER on your recorder.

PDC recording is also possible via the AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector.

. . . anytime during steps 2 through 9, press WEEKLY (NUMBER key “9”) for weekly serials or DAILY (NUMBER key “8”) for daily serials (Monday – Friday). Either "WEEKLY" or "DAILY" appears on the screen. Pressing the button again makes the corresponding indication disappear.

NOTE:
