Basic Operations

Rec) (not available on SLV-SE630D/E and SE230D)
If you use the SMARTLINK connection, you can easily record what you are
watching on the TV (other than tapes being played on the VCR).
Tip
• The TV indicator appears in the display window after you press z REC in some
situations such as:
–when you are watching a source connected to the TV’s line input, or
–when the TV tuner preset data for the programme position is different from the
data in the VCR tuner preset.
Notes
• You cannot record what you are watching using this method when the VCR is in
the following modes; pause, timer standby, tuner preset, Auto Set Up, and
recording.
• When the TV indicator is lit in the display window, do not turn off the TV nor
change the TV programme position. When the TV indicator is not lit, the VCR
continues recording the programme even if you change the TV programme
position on the TV.
