You can set the unit to start recording whenever it detects a video signal from the external tuner.

Preparing for the Satellite Link Timer Recording:

Preparation on the tuner

•  Satellite Link accepts only the connection from L1 (rear) with Satellite Box / Cable Box. 

(The connection from L2 cannot read any signals from the Satellite Box / Cable Box.)

•  The external tuner should be equipped with some kind of timer function. Using timer 

function of the tuner, set it to be turned on when it comes to the time you want to start 
recording, and off 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 the power off when you finish setting.

Preparation on this unit

• Make sure to select the desired Recording mode beforehand.
