42 EN TIMER RECORDING
This function allows you to automatically record a satellite program
which is timer programmed on your external DBS receiver.
Connect a DBS receiver to the unit’s [S-VIDEO/VIDEO/AUDIO
INPUT L-1] connectors and program the timer on the DBS
receiver. The unit starts or stops recording by the signals input
from the DBS receiver. After recording, the unit’s power shuts off
automatically.
1Press REC MODE repeatedly to set the recording mode.
2Press and hold REC LINK for about 2seconds to engage the
Automatic Satellite Program Recording mode. AVB and AR-LKB
light up on the front display panel.
NOTES:
To disengage the Automatic Satellite Program Recording mode,
press REC LINK.
If the unit’s power is off, it is not possible to engage the Automatic
Satellite Program Recording mode.
In step 2, if AVB blinks quickly on the front display panel even
though your DBS receiver’s power is off, Automatic Satellite
Program Recording will not work properly with that DBS
receiver*. If this is the case, perform “Manual Timer
Programming” (Apg. 38) to timer record a satellite program.
* Some DBS receivers output signals even if the power is off. Automatic
Satellite Program Recording is not possible with those DBS receivers.
AVB blinks on the front display panel while Automatic Satellite
Program Recording is in progress.
For timer programming of the DBS receiver, refer to the
instruction manual of the DBS receiver.
Automatic Satellite Program Recording is not possible if your
DBS receiver does not have a timer.
Pressing the unit’s A button while Automatic Satellite Program
Recording is in progress turns off the unit’s power and
disengages the Automatic Satellite Program Recording mode.
If there are more than one satellite programs you wish to record
with Automatic Satellite Program Recording, it is not possible to
set different recording modes for each program.
Depending on the type of DBS receiver, the unit may not record a
slight portion of the beginning of the program or may record
slightly longer than the actual length of the program.
If you engage the Automatic Satellite Program Recording mode
when the DBS receiver’s power is on, the unit will not start
Automatic Satellite Program Recording even though AVB blinks on
the front display panel. When the DBS receiver shuts off once
and is turned back on again, the unit starts recording.
You can also record a program from your cable system in the
same way if the system has a timer.
When the Automatic Satellite Program Recording mode is
engaged, or the unit’s power is turned off after Automatic Satellite
Program Recording is finished, the unit will not enter the timer
mode even though AAUTO TIME RB is set to AONB (Apg. 60).
