VCR Plus+ ® PROGRAMMING SYSTEM
You can easily program a timer recording by entering the
PlusCode
® programming number (3 to 8 digits) published
in your TV Guide ® , CATV guide or local newspaper.
On any occasion, you can preset a maximum of 8 programs
to be recorded during the next 1-year period, including the
ones programmed by normal timer recording. See
“PROGRAM TIMER RECORDING” on page 35.
You can also set any of the 8 time slots to repeatedly
record the same channel at the same time daily (Monday
through Friday) or weekly. Daily and weekly settings are
retained in the timer memory and will continue to cue the
VCR to record as long as tape is available.
During timer programming, you may want to take advantage
of convenient features that give you the option of saving the
title/type of program being recorded (Rec. List Super, page
27) and having the VCR automatically set the proper tape
speed (Smart Speed Record Function, page 26).
NOTE: The clock time must be set before a VCR Plus+
programming system recording can be programmed.
