REC MODE

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.

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 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 (A pg. 77) does not work when the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode is engaged.
