TIMER RECORDING
Page 49Wednesday, 25 May 2005 13:34
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/
DECODER] 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.

Also refer to AIMPORTANTB on page 68.
3Press REC MODE repeatedly to set the recording mode.

Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode. ASATjB
appears on the front display panel.
NOTES:
To disengage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode, press SATj.
If the unit’s power is off, it is not possible to engage the Automatic
Satellite Programme Recording mode.
In step 4, if ASATjB 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. 47) 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.
ASATjB 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.
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
ASATjB blinks on the front display panel. When the satellite
receiver shuts off once and is turned back on again, the unit
starts recording.
You can also record a programme from your cable system in the
same way if the system has a timer.
Just Clock (Apg. 77) does not work when the Automatic Satellite
Programme Recording mode is engaged.
