Automatic Satellite Program Recording
This facility allows you to automatically record a satellite program which is timer-programmed on your external satellite receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the recorder's rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors and program the timer on the satellite receiver; the recorder starts recording when the signals input from the satellite receiver to the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors, and when there is no input signals the recorder stops recording and the power shuts off.
Before performing the following steps:
●Program the timer on the satellite receiver.
●Insert a cassette with the safety tab in place.
ASet tape speed
Press p to set the tape speed.
BEngage Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode
Press and hold REC LINK for about 2 seconds. The REC LINK indicator lights up and the recorder turns off automatically.
●To disengage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode, press REC LINK.
●If the recorder's power is off, it is not possible to engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode.
ATTENTION
●Be sure not to turn on the satellite receiver before the program is executed; otherwise, the recorder will start recording when the satellite receiver's power is turned on.
●If you have connected another appliance other than a satellite receiver to the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors, be sure not to engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode; otherwise, the recorder will start recording when the connected appliance's power is turned on.
●Auto Satellite Prog recording and timer-recording cannot be done at the same time.
NOTES:
●Auto Satellite Prog recording is only possible with the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors.
●When the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode is engaged or the recorder's power is turned off after Auto Satellite Prog recording is finished, the recorder will not enter the Timer mode even though “AUTO TIMER” is set to “ON”.
●For timer programming of the satellite receiver, refer to the instruction manual of the satellite receiver.
●Auto Satellite Prog recording is not possible if your satellite receiver does not have a timer.
●The REC LINK indicator blinks while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.
●Pressing the recorder's 1 button while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress turns off and recorder's power and disengages the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode.
●If there is more than one satellite program you wish to record with Auto Satellite Prog Recording, it is not possible to set a different tape speed for each; the tape speed selected in step 1 will apply to all the programs for Auto Satellite Prog recording.
●The B.E.S.T. ( 15) does not work while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.
●Depending on the type of satellite receiver, the recorder may not record a short portion at the beginning of the program or may record slightly longer than the actual length of the program.
●If you engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode when the satellite receiver's power is on, the recorder will not start Auto Satellite Prog recording even though the button's light blinks. When the satellite receiver shuts off once and is turned back on again, the recorder starts recording.
●You can also record a program from your cable system in the same way if the system has a timer and is connected to the recorder's rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors.
●When you press the recorder's REC LINK button to engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode, if the REC LINK indicator does not light but instead blinks quickly even though your satellite receiver's power is off, Auto Satellite Prog Recording will not
work properly with that satellite receiver*.
If this is the case, perform “Express Timer Programming” ( 11) to timer-record a satellite program.
*Some satellite receivers output signals even if the power is off. Auto Satellite Prog Recording is not possible with those satellite receivers.
●After Automatic Satellite Program Recording, the number of
recorded programs will not be displayed on the front display panel for the instant Review function ( 8).
