AUTOMATIC TIMER
RECORDING
The VCR’s automatic timer lets you program it to select an input source, start recording from that source at a time you set, then stop record- ing at a time you set. You can set up to eight program timers to record any combination of weekly, daily, or
You can set the VCR to record at any time on a specific day within a
Notes:
•The VCR can record only one broadcast at a time. If you program the VCR’s timer to record broadcasts on different channels that start at the same time, the VCR only records the program that has the lowest program number.
•If two timer programs overlap, the one that starts first has priority. The VCR begins recording the second program after the first program ends.
•The VCR must be off at the programmed time for it to make an automatic timer recording.
•If there is a power failure of more than 3 minutes during a timer recording, the recording does not resume after power is restored.
•If there is a power failure of more than 3 minutes before a programmed start time, the VCR loses the clock setting and there- fore does not start automatic timer record- ing. However, if you have an EDS channel in your area and set the VCR to automati- cally set the clock from the EDS signal, the clock is reset within 10 minutes after power is restored, and the VCR records at the programmed time(s).
