USING EVENT TIMER
IMPORTANT: The Event Timer will only work when the time is set to manual
mode. In Time Setting menu select Manual and set the time. Also the event timer

You can program up to 20 events for recording via the VCR SCART output. The STB turns
on and off automatically at the set times for the events. Press MENU key and select Event
Timer.

On Time, Off Time: Enter with 0~9 keys ‘On’ and ‘Off’ times for the event. Configure
other events the same way, ensuring that the ‘On’ and ‘Off’ times do not overlap previous
event time on the same date. The STB will turn ‘on’ (from standby) and select the set
channel automatically. If positioner is used, the dish will move to that satellite.
NOTE: If positioner is used, please set event ‘On’ time to 3 minutes ahead of the
