8.2 Recording with the timer

The menu „Timer recording“ is intended primarily for recording Pay-TV programmes (e.g. Premiere) in cases where the decoder is connected to a EURO socket of the TV set.

8 timers can be programmed up to 2 months in advance.

Example: A VHS video recorder which has only one EURO socket is connected to the EURO 1 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder is connected to the EURO 3 socket. You now wish to record a film running on the Pay TV channel.

Explanation

If no timers have been programmed before, the table in the menu is empty. If you have previously program- med timer recordings, these will be displayed in the table.

The current time of day and the current date are nee- ded for programming in the timer menu. The time is normally obtained from the Megatext function and the date from the VPS signal. Note that some stations do not transmit VPS signals and/or Megatext.

If the time and/or date are not detected automati- cally, you must enter them manually.
