Timer Programming from Menu
The Timer Programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you wish to remind watching or
record to the external recorder. At the correct time, the TV will tune to the correct channel automatically
to record even if the TV is in Standby mode.
TV Guide may also be used to set timer programming event
(p. 19)
.
Timer Programming can store up to 15 events.
For recording using Timer Programming, the TV must be either On or in standby. For reminders to be displayed,
the TV must be On.
No other channel can be selected while Ext Rec. of a Timer Programming is in progress.
It may not be possible to record an encrypted programme (which is copy-protected).
When recording programmes, be sure to make the proper settings on the recorder connected to the TV.
If a compatible recorder with Q-Link or similar technologies is connected to the TV (p. 60) and the “Link Settings”
(p. 30) are correct, no setting of the recorder is required. Also read the manual of the recorder.
If the recorder is not compatible with Q-Link or similar technologies, set “Q-Link” in the Setup Menu (p. 30) to the
connected terminal (AV1 or AV2), and set the timer of the recorder in addition to the Timer Programming on the
TV. For preparations of a recorder, read the manual of the recorder.
Recordings are always in standard definition composite video via SCART, even if the original programme is in
high definition.
