Timer
General
You can programme the Mediamaster to switch on and off at pre-
defined times.
The timer function is very useful when you want to record a pro-
gramme and you are unable to start/stop the recording event your-
self, or when you just want to be reminded of the start of a
programme that you do not want to miss.
Important information related to the timer recording
If you programme the box to perform a timer recording, e.g., in the
middle of the night (or at any other time), be sure to turn the TV set
off with the mechanical switch located on the TV. If you turn the TV
set off by just putting it into standby mode with the remote control,
it will be turned on when the recording starts.
