The Auto Set Up function sets the clock, tuner channels and
Guide Channels automatically when the button on the
recorder/remote is first pressed to power on the recorder after
you plug the mains power cord into a mains outlet.
Before starting the following procedure, make sure that the TV
aerial cable is connected to the recorder and that the recorder's
mains power cord is connected to a mains outlet ( pg.10).
PERFORM AUTO SET UP
1
Press on the recorder or remote control.
"Auto" appears on the display panel and blinks; do
NOT press any button on the recorder or remote
control until the display panel shows the current
time or "CH1" or "--:--".
Auto channel set function takes place first; it assigns
automatically all receivable stations in your area so
that you can call them up with the CHAINE buttons
without going through any vacant channel.
Auto clock set function sets the clock automatically
by reading the clock setting data from a station
transmitting a PDC signal while auto channel set is
being performed.
During auto channel set, the recorder recognizes each
station name of the detected stations which transmit a
PDC signal by reading the NI (= Network Identifica-
tion) code, stores them in the recorder's memory, and
then automatically sets SHOWVIEW assigned Guide
Channel for those stations according to the broadcast
area. Depending on the reception conditions, the
station names may not be stored correctly, and auto
Guide Channel set may not work properly; check if the
Guide Channels have been set correctly ( pg.24,
"SHOWVIEW Setup").
When Auto Set Up has been completed successfully the
correct current time will be displayed.
When auto channel set has been completed successfully
but auto clock set has not, "CH" will be displayed.
When neither auto channel set nor auto clock set has been
completed successfully, "--:--" will be displayed.
NOTES:
If the TV power is on and its AV mode is selected during Auto
Set Up, the REG.AUTO.DES CANAUX screen will appear.
If there is a power cut, or if you press or MENU while
Auto Set Up is in progress, Auto Set Up will be interrupted; be
sure to turn off the recorder power once and press to turn
the power back on to re-start Auto Set Up.
If the memory backup fails because there has been a power cut
or the mains power has been removed from the recorder, since
all the assigned tuner channels and their Guide Channels
remain in the recorder's memory, the recorder will not perform
Auto Set Up even if you press to turn the recorder power
back on. Simply perform clock set procedure (
pg. 22).
* See "SHOWVIEW Setup" on page 24 to check if the Guide Channels have been set correctly.
