Timer recording using ShowView
c a s s e t t e s
R E C O R D I N G
◆
For timer recordings, clock, date, and stations
must be set correctly.
◆
Load a cassette with its safety tab in place
(see page 17) and with sufficient free space for
the recording.
◆
VPS/PDC
is a service provided by some stations to enable you to perform timer recordings
precisely even if the broadcaster delays the start time of the programme slightly. The time you
enter is the VPS/PDC time so must be correct. Not all stations offer VPS/PDC, in which case the
video will start at the time you enter and not the actual start time of the programme.
If you wish to start recording at a specific time without it being adjusted by the VPS/PDC
system in the event of a delay, switch VPS/PDC off otherwise the video will not record.
◆
If you don’t have the
ShowView numbers
see page 14 for the normal timer.
◆
If you have made a
mistake
, move back to the relevant position with the
button and change the
setting.
◆
If there is
no programme location
displayed under “PR” in the change menu, the video doesn’t yet
know the location number for the programme you want. Type it in and this will be stored for last
recordings.
◆
If you wish to record from a
satellite receiver
, select under “PR” the satellite programme location
or AV (1/2) (depending on the connection with the antenna cable or the SCART-cable). Leave the
satellite tuner switched on and to the programme you want.
◆
Should programming
overlap
, you get a warning.
◆
To cancel the recording press the button (stop) more than 5 seconds.
