48 EN TIMER RECORDING ON HDD/DVD DECK

Page 48Monday, 27 December 2004 14:08
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.
1Press HDD on the remote to choose the recording deck. You
can also press DV/HDD/DVD on the unit repeatedly to select
the recording deck.
2Set AL-2 SELECTB to ASAT VIDEOB or ASAT S-VIDEOB.
(Apg. 63)
Also refer to AIMPORTANTB on page 69.
3Press REC MODE repeatedly to set the recording mode.
4Press and hold SATj for about 2 seconds to engage the
Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode. AVB and
ASATjB appear 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 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. 46) 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.
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.
