1. Program to be recorded was correctly

• The broadcaster supplied program information that was incor-

 

selected from ChannelView, but incorrect

rect and/or was changed after a recording was added to the

 

program was recorded.

Record List.

 

 

TV Clock not set.

Daylight Savings Time option is incorrect.

2.Incomplete ChannelView program recorded. Recording device may lack sufficient blank space to make a full recording.

3. ChannelView program recording failed.

• Connection and compatibility issues with IEEE 1394

 

(FireWire®) digital devices. This may include too many

 

Firewire devices in use at one time, or the recording device

 

not understanding the record command.

 

• Television lost power long enough to lose current clock time.

 

• TV energy Mode was set to Low Power. Change TV Energy

 

mode to Fast Power On.

4. Cannot record to or from the IEEE 1394

• To initiate a recording to IEEE 1394 device, first switch the

device, including dubbed recordings.

TV to the desired input (recordable inputs are ANT1, ANT2,

 

INPUT 1–3). Press the

(RECORD) key. The Record >

 

Schedule menu will display to allow setup of the recording.

The source device for the recording is not powered on.

When dubbing, the destination device for the recording is not powered on.

The program is copy protected.

The program has already been recorded once and the copy protection only allows one recording.

Unapproved source device for copy protected material.

The recording device cannot decode the copyright signal included in the signal source (try another device if available).

The playing device (for dubbing) does not support copy- righted material.

Source for recording is copyrighted

Too many IEEE 1394 devices in network. Insufficient band- width available. Disconnect unused devices.

IEEE 1394 source device has higher communication speed (S 400) than record device. If possible, reverse devices, play in the slower device and record in the faster device.

• There may be a slow device in the middle of the IEEE 1394

 

 

network. Move the slow devices to the end so that connec-

 

 

tions for faster devices do not pass through them.
