Empty Scheduler, ready to be programmed. Once a valid record
time is entered, and the save button pressed, the empty box will
get a green checkmark.

Scheduler after having been set. The “--- Current” means that
the AV 700 will record the current video signal (no channel
changing). This is for people who do not use the stick-on
infrared emitter.

Notes about setting the Scheduler.

• The scheduler automatically reorganizes the recording events chronologically.

• In order for a scheduled recording to start, you must leave the AV 700 in the main menu screen or set it to

standby mode (press Standby button on remote control). That is, if you are listening to music, watching a video,
or looking at photos on your AV 700, it will not interrupt you in order to go make the scheduled recording.

• If you have connected and will be using the IR Emitter system (see the TV Docking Pod chapter as well as the

chapter Setting the Infrared Emitter code below) with a video cassette recorder (VCR) please note that in
order for the IR Emitter to properly control the VCR, your VCR should not be left in sleep mode.

• When the AV 700 user interface is in English, the Date format is set to Month/Day.

• If the end time is earlier than the start time, then it is assumed that you start recording on the start date, and the

recording ends on the following day at the end time.

• Once a scheduled recording has been made, or the date of a recording has been passed, without the recording

having been made (the AV 700 was not connected to the docking pod or not in Standby mode), the schedule
entry will be erased from the scheduler.

• Long recording times (2 hours and more) can create fi les that are larger than 2 gigabytes (GB) each. The AV 700

will create multiple fi les in order to make long recordings. Thus a long scheduled recording may produce video
fi les called VID0000, VID0001, and VID0002. This is only in the case of recordings that are over 2 GB in size.
This 2 GB fi le size constraint is due to the Windows

®

FAT32 AVI fi le type specifi cation.

• When you set the scheduler, the AV 700 will create a text fi le in its System folder called DVRTimer.txt. You

should not erase this fi le.
