E Manual

You may enter the necessary information for recording
manually.
Select “Manual” instead of “Via EPG” in step 4
in Via EPG.
The station selection screen displays.
You may be routed to the “Time and date” entry
screen if the TV does not recognise the current time.
Press a/b/c/d to select the station you want
to record from, and then press OK.
Timer list screen appears, outlining each setting
used for the upcoming recording. Set the
following settings as necessary. Confirm with
OK.
1 Recorder: Selection of the recording device.
2 Date: Date of recording
3 Recording time: Time of recording
4 VPS: Selection of using VPS signal
5 Recording type: Selection of recording frequency
(once only, Mon-Fri, daily, weekly or serial [if EPG
data is available]).
A message appears if there is a conflict between two
programmes. Follow the screen prompts and choose
the one that has priority.
NOTE
If you use an external recorder without AV Link, you have to
select the recording source in the recorder (e.g. AUX, refer
to your recorder’s operation manual). In case of recording
DVB programmes, the TV’s tuner is used, not the VCR’s
tuner.
If you use an external recorder with AV Link, this recording
source selection is controlled automatically.

Timer list

Here you will find a list of channels already
programmed for recording. From here, you can
also change the recording data (GREEN), delete
programmed recordings completely (YELLOW), or
programme a new recording (RED) by pressing the
assigned colour buttons.

Pre- and post record time

If you record a programme without VPS, you can
specify a time span by which your programme
time should be brought forward/prolonged so that
programmes which begin/end too early/late are
recorded from start to finish.

Timer recording with external

devices

E Recorder with AV Link

If you use an externally connected recorder with AV
Link or a similar system, the TV set and connected
recorder exchange its own station/timer data.
Please consult the operating manual of your recorder
to find out if your recorder is AV Link compatible.
In addition use only Euro SCART cables for the
connection between the TV set and recorder.
Analogue stations
The timer data is transmitted automatically from the TV
set to the recorder after programming is complete.
The recording is then controlled by the recorder
and the recorder tuner is used for reception of the
programme.
The recording data is not saved in the timer list of the
TV set. Consequently if you want to change or delete
the timer data then you must do so on the recorder.
Digital stations
If you want to record digital stations with an externally
connected recorder, then the DVB tuner is used and
the TV device takes over control of the recorder. Then
the station on the TV set is locked during the timer
recording.

E Recorder without AV Link

If you cannot programme your externally connected
recorder from the TV set, but it supports AV Link, the
receiver of the TV set is always used.
AV Link must be switched on on the recorder. Read the
operating instructions of your recorder.
In addition use only Euro SCART cables for the
connection between the TV set and recorder.
Analogue and digital stations
You can control the recording from the TV set. The
recorder must be set manually to the AV input to which
the TV is connected. Then the station on the TV set is
locked during the timer recording.
Copy protection
Copy-protected programs will not be output on the
EURO SCART sockets for legal reasons.
