Important programming notes
When recordings have been programmed, k appears in
the display.
The programmed recording will always be made at the
recording speed (SP/LP) that at the time has been
selected on the video recorder.
You cannot operate the video recorder manually while a
programmed recording is being made. If you want to
interrupt the programmed recording, press the
STANDBY m button.
If the video recorder is switched on a few minutes before
a programmed recording is due to take place, ’TIMER
RECORD’ will flash on the TV screen.
If the end of the cassette is reached during a programmed
recording, the video recorder automatically ejects the
cassette.
If you forget to load a cassette, after programming the
recording, ’NO CASSETTE’ will appear on the TV screen
for a few seconds.
If you insert a cassette with erase protection, after
programming the recording, ’PROTECTED CASSETTE’ will
appear on the TV screen for a few seconds.
The cassette will then be ejected.
When, after pressing the TIMER k button ’TIMER FULL’
appears on the TV screen, all TIMER blocks have been
programmed. Then, with the P q or P r button, select
the TIMER block you want to adjust or clear.
If ’CODE ERROR’ appears on the TV screen, the
VIDEOPlus+ code was incorrect or the date was in-
correctly entered. Repeat the entry or end with the
STANDBY m button.
With programming at daily intervals, the first recording
must take place within a week.
If ’DAILY ERROR’ appears on the TV screen, the date was
incorrectly entered. Programming at daily intervals can
only be used for recordings to be made from Mondays to
Fridays inclusive.
Programme numbers ’E1’ and ’E2’ are provided for
programmed recordings from external sources (via the
EXT.1 or EXT.2 scart socket).
