ELECTRONIC PROGRAMME GUIDE (EPG)

PROGRAMMING A RECORDING

You can programme a recording from the various views of the EPG (“Current”, “Programme list”, “Highlights” and “Detailed information”) and from within their various sub-menus. When programming recordings, the EPG automatically adapts to the actual SAT IF input signal mode (Single Mode/Loop Through/Double Tuner). Example: If you are operating the UFC 861 in loop-through mode, you cannot simultaneously record one programme on the ARD channel and one on the ProSieben channel, because the two channels are not transmitted on the same transponder.

Use the cursor buttons () to select the programme you want and press the  (red) button. The following display appears (example):

You can set the automatic lead-in and run-on times for your recordings in the “User Settings”, “EPG Settings” menu (see also the Chapters “User Settings”, “EPG Settings”)

If there are no EPG data available for the channel you selected:

Select the channel for which you want to programme a recording in the “Current” view and

press the  (red) button. As there is no EPG data, you must enter the data (date, start, end) manually. Enter

the data using the cursor buttons () and numeric pad. Press the  button to save your settings.

If a program on a protected channel is selected, you must enter the four-digit PIN code (factory setting “0000”). The PIN can be changed by the user, as described in the Chapter “Access control”.

You now have a number of options to programme your recording. The settings are made using the cursor buttons () and the numeric pad:
