The recording Setup menu is where you tell the TV what, where, and when to record. There are two ways to open the Recording Setup menu:

by selecting Record from the Record menu.

by pressing REC on the remote control.

Your TV is able to start and stop recordings automatically and send the signals from one external playback device to another external recording device. It is also able to convert digital channels and IEEE 1394 device signals to analog signals that can be recorded on NetCommand- compatible analog VHS and S-VHS VCRs connected to the record audio and video outputs on the back of the TV.

You can schedule the recording to take place at a later time and program the recording duration for a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 6 hours (in 30-minute increments). The default is 1 hour.

When a digital recording is being made, the TV will either direct the signals to the recording device using the IEEE 1394 cable. In the case of an analog recording (as to a VCR) the TV converts the digital signals to analog format and sends the analog output to the VCR through the RECORD OUTPUT jacks.
