TIMER RECORDING

This function allows you to automatically record a satellite 
programme which is timer programmed on your external satellite 
receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the unit’s [L-2 INPUT/
DECODER] connector and programme the timer on the satellite 
receiver. The unit starts or stops recording by the signals input 
from the satellite receiver. After recording, the unit’s power shuts 
off automatically.
