TIMER RECORDING HINTS

• The Model 28 can record only one broad-

cast at a time. If you program the Model
28’s timer to record broadcasts on different
channels that start at the same time, the
Model 28 records the broadcast with the
lowest program number.

• If you set a timer and turn off the Model 28

without loading a tape, the TIMER REC
indicator flashes.

• If you insert a tape with its erase-protection

tab removed and set a timer, the TIMER
REC indicator flashes and the tape ejects.

TIMER REC STANDBY

flashes on the TV

screen for 2 minutes before a set start time
if the Model 28 is still on. If this happens,
press

POWER

to turn it off.

• If there is a power failure or the Model 28 is

unplugged for more than 1 minute, the
clock setting and all timer settings are
cleared.

• If the today timer and an automatic timer

overlap, the today timer program has prior-
ity. When the today timer program ends, the
Model 28 switches to record the remainder
of the automatic timer program.

• If automatic timers overlap, the one that

starts first has priority. When the first pro-
gram ends, the Model 28 switches to
record the remainder of the second pro-
gram.

• The TIMER REC indicator flashes after any

timer recording ends.

DUBBING (COPYING) A TAPE

The process of recording from one audio/video
device to another is called

dubbing.

Connecting a Dubbing Source

You can use a VCR, camcorder, satellite receiv-
er, or other device with A/V outputs as the dub-
bing source, connect the dubbing source to the
Model 28, then use your Model 28 to record the
signal from the dubbing source.

Note: Always use video-quality shielded cables
with phono-type connectors to connect a dub-
bing source to the Model 28. Do not use stan-
dard audio patch cords.

You can connect the audio and video outputs of
a dubbing source to the
