8.2 Recording with the timer
The menu "Timer recording" is intended primarily for recording Pay-TV programmes (e.g. Premiere). When using a Metz video recorder of
the VC, VE or VD (VF since April 2000) series you can also record SAT programmes* with this menu. For this purpose, the video recorder
must be connected to the EURO 1 socket.
*only if a SAT upgrade kit is fitted
8 timers can be programmed up to 2 months in advance.
Example:
A VHS video recorder with Data Logic is connected to the EURO 1 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder (e.g. Premiere) is
connected to the EURO 3 socket. You now wish to record a film running on a Pay TV channel.
1. Call the „Timer recording“
menu
2. Enter the date and time of
the film to be recorded
(see example)
3. Store the programmed data
and return to the TV picture
or standby mode
If no timers have been programmed before, the table in
the menu is empty. If you have previously programmed
timer recordings, these will be displayed in the table.
The current time of day and the current date are nee-
ded for programming in the timer menu. The time is
normally obtained from the Hi Text function and the
date from the VPS signal. Note that some stations do
not transmit VPS signals and/or Hi Text.
If the time and/or date are not detected automati-
cally, you must enter them manually.
The month, the day, the hours and the minutes must
each be entered in the form of two digits, e.g. 01.09
for September 1 and 09:00 for 9 AM.
If you make a mistake when entering the date and
time, you can delete the entry in the current column or
the entire line by pressing the
C
key. The entire line
can be deleted only if the key symbols at the top of the
menu are displayed in colour.
In the column "VTR", which can be selected only if a
video recorder with "Data Logic" is connected, one of
the following settings can be selected with key
A
:
— No timer data are transferred to the video recorder.
The video recorder must be programmed manually.
LV
1)
If a "Data Logic" video recorder is connected.
1)
A "Data Logic" video recorder will not function automati-
cally without "LV" and must be programmed manually.
