RECORD LINK to OFF automatically.
• Do not turn on the DBS before the
program starts; otherwise, the VCR
will start recording when the DBS
power is turned on.
• Depending on the type of DBS, the
VCR may not record the first few
seconds of the program. Or, the VCR
may record slightly longer than the
actual length of the program.
• If a Record Link is set, regular timer
recordings will not occur.
• “Err L-1” will flash on the display
panel after the VCR turns off if the
DBS power is on. Turn off the DBS
and set up the Record Link again.
Helpful Hints
This feature allows you to automatically record a satellite program
that is programmed on your DBS. The VCR will start recording
when it receives a signal from the DBS. The VCR stops recording
when the DBS signal turns off.
