Automatic recording from a satellite
tuner

If you have a satellite tuner or some other kind of set top
box connected to the

L1

input, you can have the recorder

start and stop recording automatically with the timer
settings of the connected component. (If the other
component doesn’t have a built-in timer, you’ll need to

use it with an external timer unit.)

1

After setting up for Auto Start Recording, this recorder
starts recording when it detects a signal from the other
component. When the signal ceases, the recorder stops
recording.

If you want to use this recorder with the timer features of
your satellite tuner, see

Language code list

on page 82.

Important

• It takes a little while for this recorder to switch on and

start recording after detecting a signal. Please bear
this in mind when setting the timer.

• If Auto Start Recording is set, it will not start if

another timer recording is in progress.

• Timer recordings take precedence over Auto Start

Recording. Auto Start Recording will stop if a timer
recording is due to start. After the timer recording
has finished, Auto Start Recording will resume.

Set the timer for the satellite receiver (or other

component), then switch it into standby (if
necessary).
