Timer Recording with VIDEO Plus+ System

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

Up to 8 timer programs can be stored in the recorder.

Timer Recording Troubleshooting

Even though the timer is set, the recorder will not record when:

There is no disc (or tape) loaded.

A non-recordable disc (or tape) is loaded.

Disc Protect is set to ON in the Setup menu (see page 30).

Power is turned on. (Please ensure that the set is in Standby mode for Timer recording to activate.)

There are already 49 titles recorded on the disc.

You cannot enter a timer program when:

A recording is already underway.

The time you’re trying to set has already passed.

There are already 8 timer programs set.

If two or more timer programs overlap:

The earlier program takes priority.

When the earlier program finishes, the later program starts.

If two programs are set to start at exactly the same time, the program entered first takes priority.

If the disc is damaged, the recording may not complete successfully. In this case even though the Check field shows “Rec. OK”, it may not be.
