10. Programming a recording (TIMER)

General

Use “Programming a recording (TIMER)”, to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date.

The DVD recorder will switch to the right programme number and begin recording at the correct time.

With this DVD recorder, you can pre-programme up to six recordings within a period of one month.

To make a programmed recording, your DVD recorder needs to know: * the date you want to make the recording

* the programme number of the TV channel * the start and stop time of the recording

* the recording mode (“M1/M2/M2x/M3/M4/M6/FR”)

This information is saved in a “TIMER block”.

Before you begin, make sure the clock is set. If the clock is not set, the “Time/Date” menu will appear when you press the TIMER button.

Question

What is “FR mode”?

FR mode is used when you want to record a certain length of program but you don’t know how much room remaining on the recording disc. By using this mode, this unit automatically selects the best suitable recording mode for the length of the program.You cannot select FR mode, when you set the recording timer of Mo-Fr/ Weekly, and when you set PDC/VPS on.We strongly recommend that you do not use this function combined with VPS/PDC. In such a condition this DVD recorder may not perform the task properly.
