Satellite Receiver Users

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

1 Perform steps 1 10. Enter "L-2" for the preset position in step 6.

2 Set the satellite receiver to the appropriate channel before the selected programme begins.

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 only in a very few areas. All channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme listing guide for latest information. 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 IN on your recorder.

PDC recording is also possible via the AV1 IN/OUT connector and the front panel connectors.

appears on the screen. Pressing the button again makes the corresponding indication disappear.

NOTE:

You can programme this recorder to timer-record as many as 8 programmes. If you try to programme the recorder to record a ninth, "PROGRAM FULL" appears on screen and "FULL" appears on the front display panel. To record the extra programme, you must first cancel any unnecessary programmes (pg. 16).

NOTES:

The warning only appears if you’re not in the Timer mode at the time.

If this recorder is being used as the player for tape dubbing, the warning screen will be recorded on the tape in the other video recorder.

The warning blinks for the entire 5 minutes leading up to the start of timer recording. To clear the display, press .
