VCR Plus+
Timer
Programming
(HR-A54U
Only)
Turn on the TV and select the VCR channel 3 or 4 (or AV mode).
Timer recording allows you to program the VCR to automatically record a program that will be broadcast at some future time. The timer record function can be programmed using VCR Plus+ or Express Timer Programming up to 8 shows as far as a year in advance. (☞ pg. 24 or 28)
The VCR Plus+ timer programming system eliminates the need to input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the timer record function. Simply key in the PlusCode number for the TV program you wish to record and the VCR's timer will be automatically programmed. (The PlusCodes are the numbers next to the programs in most TV listings.)
