Recording TV programmes using the Dial Timer
Notes
• If eight programmes have already been set using the ShowView system or the
TIMER menu, “FULL” appears in the display window for about five seconds.
• The indicator flashes in the display window when you complete the setting in
step 9 with no tape inserted.
• If you set the clock using the Auto Clock Set function and AUTO ADJUST is set to
ON, the clock will adjust itself to the incoming time signal regardless of
adjustments made with the Dial Timer. Be sure you have set the Auto Clock Set
correctly.
• The station name may not appear if the VCR does not receive station name
information signals.
About the Demonstration Mode
The Dial Timer function has a Demonstration Mode that allows the user, such as a
salesperson, to enter more than eight examples of timer settings when demonstrating
the use of the Dial Timer. It cancels the FULL notice which appears if eight
programmes have already been set. Do not use the Demonstration Mode for making
timer recordings. Doing so may cause the settings to be inaccurate.
To activate the Demonstration Mode
Press X (pause) on the VCR
while turning the DIAL TIMER. “DEMO”
appears in the display window for a few seconds.
To cancel the Demonstration Mode
Turn the power off and unplug the mains lead. Although the Demonstration
Mode is cancelled, the timer settings entered while using the Demonstration
Mode will remain. Be sure to manually cancel the timer settings before you
use the Dial Timer or any other timer method after reconnecting the mains
lead (see page 73).
