Programming a recording or a transfer
Your DVD recorder lets you program recordings or transfer. Programming several recordings is
really useful when it uses the high capacitu of the hard disc, thereby enabling you to go beyond
the limited capacities of DVD+R /+RW discs. You can programme recordings using the manual 9
step method or by choosing, for channels which broadcast the programme guide, the Navclick
programming.
Manual programming
MENU è Timers è OK è OK.
Note: your DVD recorder can memorise the parameters of 8
different programmings. In the case of double programming, a
warning message is displayed.
Name - Press the INFO button to access the character table. Enter the name of the recording,
one letter at a time, then confirm.
Channel - a) Enter the channel number using the digit keys of the remote control (Pr -- must
be displayed) or browse the list of channels in the memory of the DVD recorder using the
PR+/PR-key.
b) Or select one of the Audio-Video (AV2,AV3,AV4) sockets to which is connected a device
(satellite receiver or other) using the B key.
Note: selecting the AV2 connector allows you to program the recording of a satellite reciever programme
(either left switched on or also programmed) connected to this connector.The selecting of the AV2 connector
is activated by default by the AV Timer function (triggering of programming via the AV connector).
Day(s) -Type in the date using the number buttons on the remote control handset (if the
recording is not scheduled for the same day) and/or choose a repeat period with the B button.
Once: to record the selected programme according to the parameters you have defined.
Each Tue: to record the same programme the same day every week starting from today (supposing today
is Tuesday).
MON-FRI: to record the same programme, everyday at the same time from Monday to Friday.
Time - Enter the recording start time and then the stop time.
To this end, and according to the features of the receivers, you must:
- either program the receiver with the same beginning and end times, then switch off the DVD
recorder and the receiver,
- or leave the satellite receiver switched on, on the channel to record, program the DVD
recorder, then switch it off.
Note: if you selected AV2 during step 4, you do not need to enter the start and stop times, since it is the
device that is connected that triggers the start and stop of the recording at the times set via its
programming menu.
