Using the System
• For All Blacked-Out Programs - If you set a timer for a program or event
that is blacked out in your area, when this timer operates the receiver may
display only an error or password-entry screen. If you have set an
Ext Event
Timer
, the device will record this screen and not the blacked-out event.
Event Timer Performance when the Receiver is Off
If the receiver is OFF (in standby mode) at the time an Auto-Tune or DVR
Event Timer is scheduled to operate, then the receiver will turn itself ON.

Using Two Tuners to Record
You can set up your dual-tuner satellite receiver to record one or even two
programs while you’re also watching one that you’ve previously recorded.

Program Guide. Find a channel with
a program or event that you want to watch now.
2. Press SELECT to tune to that channel and watch the program.
3. Press the RECORD button. A message will be displayed asking
whether you want to record the remainder of the program. Select
OK to begin recording it now.

Program Guide to find another
program or event that you want to watch now. Select that program. You are
now watching one program while recording another one at the same time.

now recording two programs or events at the same time.
