Basic Operations (Recording)
41
simplified timer recording without having to use the programming timer. In order to set
the IRT properly the clock must be set before starting.
Follow the steps 1 through 5 on "Basic Recording Steps" on page 36.
After the recording has started, press the REC/IRT button again to indicate the
recording time on the display.
You can set the recording time length, which increases by intervals of 30 minutes, one
hour, one and half hours, two hours, three hours, and four hours, (i.e. 0:30, 1:00, 1:30,
2:00, 3:00, 4:00) by continually pressing the REC/IRT button. While you are recording,
the time remaining is shown in the display.
At the end of your recording the display will read "0:00"; recording will then
automatically stop and the VCR will turn itself off.
To stop recording while in the IRT mode, press the POWER button and then press the
STOP button(this can be done either on the VCR or with the remote control) within 10
seconds.
Setting the VCR to Record Later
With the delayed recording feature, you can set this VCR so that it automatically comes
on and records programs whenever you like--without your being around! You can record
a program one time only, or you can automatically record a show every weekday or
every week at the same time. You can preset as many as 8 timed recordings at once.
Recording is even easier when you have set up your channels for VCR Plus+. Learn the
basics of delayed recording in this section. Then read about VCR Plus+ beginning on
page 43.
We suggest you try all the different ways of programming the VCR when you have
some leisure time, so you can learn how it works. That way, when an important show is
going to be on that you really want to record, you'll be confident that your timed
recording setup will work.
Types of Delayed Recordings
ONE TIME Records one show at a particular date and time.
DAILY Records a show at the same time every day of the week, Monday through
Friday.
WEEKLY Records a show at the same day and time every week.
Your VCR can record up to 8 programs at different days and times, or up to 8 programs
on the same day.
