Automatic recording from a
satellite tuner

If you have a satellite tuner or some other
kind of set top box connected to the INPUT
1/AUTO START REC
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.

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.

• Turn the HDMI Control setting to Off

when using Auto Start Recording
(page 118).

1

Set the timer for the satellite receiver

(or other component), then switch it into
standby (if necessary).
Check the manual that came with the
receiver if you’re not sure how to do this.

2

Check that the ‘Audio In’ settings for

‘External Audio’ and ‘Dual Mono
Recording/Bilingual Recording’ are as
you want them.
See Audio In on page 111 for more on these
settings.

3

Set up the recorder.

• Use REC MODE to set the recording

quality. See Setting the picture quality/
recording time
on page 36 for detailed
information.

4

Select ‘Timer Recording’, then

‘Auto Start Recording’ from the Home
Menu.

5

Select ‘Yes’ to switch Auto Start

Recording on, or ‘No’ to switch off.
If you choose ‘Yes’ the recorder
automatically goes into standby.

The AUTO indicator in the front panel
display lights.

The recorder will automatically switch on
and start recording when the other
component comes on. Recording stops
when the external component switches off.

1 You can’t set Auto Start Recording when:

– the recorder is recording or in timer recording standby.
