Setting up Recordings

Figure 13

Through NetCommand, you can automatically start and stop recordings and send signals from one playback device to a recording device. Recordings can be made on recordable devices connected to the TV or to the internal TV Disc. The TV Disc is an IEEE 1394 hard disk drive, with 120 GB of memory and is available for CableCARD™, Ant 1, Ant 2, IEEE 1394 or tuning devices (cable boxes or satellite receivers) connected to inputs 1, 2, 3 when a PIP or POP is not displayed.

The TV can convert digital channels and IEEE 1394 device signals to analog signals that can be recorded on NetCommand compatible analog VHS and S-VHS VCRs.

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. During the recording, the TV can be powered Off. If the TV is powered On, it will be tuned to the source that is being recorded. The TV should remain on this source to ensure the recording continue without interruption.
