Timer recording using the G-Codeprogramming system

This system makes programming timer recordings very simple. Most TV guides publish G-Code programming numbers with their programme details. If you want to make a timer recording of a programme, you just input the corresponding code. The date, start, stop and channel settings are made automatically. All you have to do is tell the recorder the recording mode, and whether it’s a once-only recording or a regular recording.

Note that if the country setting is incorrect (set in the Setup Navigator), timer recordings made using the G-Code programming system may not work as expected.

1Press ‘G-Code’ to display the G-Code programme screen.

You can also access this screen from the Home Menu (press HOME MENU, select Timer Recording, then G-Code system).
