programme which is timer-programmed on your external
satellite receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the recorder's
AV2 IN connector and programme the timer on the satellite
receiver; the recorder starts recording when the signals input

there is no input signals the recorder stops recording and the
power shuts off.
