Synchronized Recording

You can set the VCR to automatically record programmes from equipment such as a satellite tuner by connecting the equipment to the DECODER/ LINE-2 IN connector. The connected equipment must have a timer function for this feature to work.

When the connected equipment turns on, the VCR also automatically turns on and starts recording a programme from DECODER/LINE-2 IN.

How to connect for Synchronized Recording

Connect the DECODER/LINE-2 IN connector of the VCR to the TV Scart connector of the satellite tuner. Then connect the LINE-1 (TV) connector to the TV.
