TIMER RECORDING
AUTOMATIC TIMER RECORDING
You may set the VCR to start and end a recording while you are away. You can set seven programs to record on
specific days, daily or weekly within a 1 year period.
In the example below, the timer is being set to record:
DATE: 6th May, 1996
SETTING TIME: from 7:30PM to 8:30PM
CHANNEL: CH16
TAPE SPEED: SP
PROGRAM NO: No. 1
NOTE: You must use the remote control for this procedure.
Make sure...
• VCR Power must be turned on.
• Turn on the TV and set the TV channel to the same video output channel as located on the back of the VCR.
(CH3 or 4)
• Press VCR/TV button on the remote control so that "VCR" appears on the display.
• Clock must be set to the correct time and date before setting the timer.
• Insert a cassette tape with its erase prevention tab in place. (If necessary, rewind or fast forward the tape to the
point at which you want to begin recording.)
Avoid overlap of programs...
There is a case that a program will not be performed.
When programs overlap:
• The program that the start time is set earliest has priority.
• When the earliest program has finished and the programs which should start still overlap, the recording will start
in order of the program number.
• If you programmed as the illustration, the timer recording would be carried out as follows (shaded part is the
carried period):
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM for PROGRAM 2
10:00 AM - for PROGRAM 1
