Preparation on the tuner
• Satellite link accepts only the connection from L1 (rear) with the
external tuner. (The connection from L2 cannot read any signals
from the external tuner.)
• The external tuner should be equipped with some kind of timer
function. Using timer function of the tuner, set it to output audio/video
signals when it comes to the time you want to start recording, and
stop output audio/video signals when it comes to the time you want to
finish recording. Refer to the tuner’s manual on how to set the timer.
• Make sure to turn off the tuner when you finish setting.
