Using your FOXTEL Personal Digital Recorder
❖
Understanding the Playback Indicator
The Playback Indicator on your FOXTEL PDR’s front panel lights up to
show you what your FOXTEL PDR is doing. Provided you have ‘Front
panel indicator’ set to ‘Standard’ (see page 53), the Playback indicator
works as follows:
Recording Indicator
The recording indicator lights up constantly when your FOXTEL PDR
is making a recording that will be listed in your Personal Planner.
It
does not
light up when you are using Live Pause or Instant Rewind,
because these recordings are not saved in your Personal Planner.
Play Indicator
The play indicator
always
lights up whenever you are watching a
recorded programme, whether it is a programme from your Personal
Planner, or a Live Pause or Instant Rewind recording.
Circular Indicator
The circular indicator is used to show
playback
. It
does not
light up
when your FOXTEL PDR is recording (unless you are watching a
recorded programme at the same time).
◆
If you press
pause
, it lights up in a full circle.
◆
If you play a recorded programme from your
Personal
Planner
, or if you use
Instant Rewind
, the indicator spins
clockwise to show play or fast forward, and spins anti-clockwise
to show rewind.
◆
When you are using
Live Pause
, the circular indicator
does not
spin at all.
The reason for this is so that you can distinguish
between Live Pause and Instant Rewind.

Instant Rewind, press
