NetCommand® Controlled Recordings

Record To Setup

Figure 8

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. You cannot record from an analog channel or device or a VHS or S-VHS VCR to a digital recording device such as a DVCR or A/V Disc.

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 direct the signals to the recording device using the IEEE 1394 cable if available, or analog, if not. When an analog recording is being made, the TV will direct signals to the recording device.

During a recording, the TV can be powered Off. If the TV is powered On, it must be tuned to the source that is being recorded.
