42 EN TIMER RECORDING
This function allows you to automatically record a satellite
programme which is timer programmed on your external satellite
receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the unit’s [L-2 IN] connector
and programme the timer on the satellite receiver. The unit starts
or stops recording by the signals input from the satellite receiver.
After recording, the unit’s power shuts off automatically.

In step 3, if AVB blinks quickly on the front display panel even
though your satellite receiver’s power is off, Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording will not work properly with that satellite
receiver*. If this is the case, perform AManual Timer
ProgrammingB (Apg. 38) to timer record a satellite programme.
* Some satellite receivers output signals even if the power is off. Automatic
Satellite Programme Recording is not possible with those satellite
receivers.
AVB blinks on the front display panel while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress.
For timer programming of the satellite receiver, refer to the
instruction manual of the satellite receiver.
Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is not possible if your
satellite receiver does not have a timer.
Pressing the unit’s A button while Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is in progress turns off the unit’s power
and disengages the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode.
If there are more than one satellite programmes you wish to
record with Automatic Satellite Programme Recording, it is not
possible to set different recording modes for each programme.
Depending on the type of satellite receiver, the unit may not
record a slight portion of the beginning of the programme or may
record slightly longer than the actual length of the programme.
If you engage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode when the satellite receiver’s power is on, the unit will not
start Automatic Satellite Programme Recording even though AVB
blinks on the front display panel. When the satellite receiver shuts
off once and is turned back on again, the unit starts recording.
When the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode is
engaged, or the unit’s power is turned off after Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording is finished, the unit will not enter the timer
mode even though AAUTO TIMERB is set to AONB.
Just Clock (Apg. 66) does not work when the Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording mode is engaged.
