JProgramming a recording (TIMER)
General
Use programmed recording (TIMER) to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date.
The DVD Recorder will switch to the right channel and begin recording at the correct time.
With this DVD recorder, you can pre-program up to 6 recordings within a period of one year.
To make a programmed recording, your DVD Recorder needs to know:
* the date of the recording
* the channel number of the TV channel
* the start and stop time of the recording
* the recording mode ('M1/M2/M2x/M3/M4/ M6/M8')
This information is saved in a TIMER block.
Before you begin, make sure the clock is set. If the clock is not set, the 'Time/Date' menu will
appear when you press the TIMER button.
