Timer recordings with the ShowView® system
Programming timer recordings with this system is child‘s play. Most television
schedule publications include the ShowView code numbers along with the infor-
mation about the programmes. So when you want to make a timer recording of a
programme, you only need to key in the appropriate ShowView code number. The
date, start time, end time and station are set automatically. You only need to set
the recording quality and specify whether it is to be a one-off or repeated record-
ing. You can save up to seven timer programmes on the recorder.
Select ShowView menu with the green button.
