Using the System
Tip: The receiver deletes the “Freq: Once” event timers when they operate. You must delete all other types of event timers yourself.
Tip: Remember that editing an automatic event timer converts the timer to a manual event timer. This is why the receiver displays the Edit a Manual Event Timer menu.
Maximum Number of Event Timers
You cannot create an unlimited number of event timers. If you try to create too many, the receiver displays a menu giving you the option to delete an existing timer. If you do not delete an existing timer, you will not be able to create any new ones.
