Setting Up Timer Recordings

The Timers feature allows you to set up timer recordings when you connect the VCR Controller to your DSS® receiver, and tell the receiver what type of VCR you are using.

Recording with Timer

If you choose Record instead of Watch when setting the Timer (and have set up your VCR as previously discussed), the Timer will toggle on your VCR, then start and stop recording a program.

To record with timers:

•Your VCR must be preset to the DSS® output channel (RF or Line).

•Your VCR must be OFF at the time the program is to start recording.

On-screen icons are an easy way to understand the timers.
