44 Chapter 4: Using the System Features
Setting Up the Timer
Use the Timer Setup screen to specify a day and time on which you
want the DSS receiver to automatically tune to a specific station. You
can use this feature in coordination with your VCR’s timer recording
function to automate the recording of DSS programs.
Note
When recording programs from the DSS receiver, your TV need not be turned
on. However, you must set up your VCR for timer recording and specify the
DSS receiver as the line-in source. See your VCR manual for details.
