Reference
You set an event
timer for a
program that
comes on each day
or each week, but
the timer is either
recording the
wrong program or
sometimes misses
programs. • Maybe you set the timer with the
wrong frequency.
• Maybe the network changed the
program time.
Remember, a Once event timer works just one time for one program, at the
program’s actual time. A Mon-Fri event timer works Monday through
Friday on the same channel at the same time, not keyed to any program.
A Daily event timer does the same, Monday through Sunday.
A Weekly event timer works once a week on the same channel at the same
time, not keyed to any program.
You set an event
timer, but the
timer doesn’t work
at all. Maybe the program time changed so the
event timer overlapped another event
timer. If the receiver is on and finds an event timer overlap, it displays the
Event Timer Scheduling Conflict menu. You must edit or delete
one of the overlapping event timers.
You set a Once
event timer, but
the timer doesn’t
work at the time
you expect. The program time changed. A Once event timer always works at the program’s actual time.
You stop an
event timer for one
showing of a
program that
comes on each day
or each week, but
the timer works
for the next
showing. When you stop a repeated event timer,
this applies only to the timer’s action right
then. To stop all actions of a repeated event timer, you must delete the event timer.
Note: The receiver deletes a Once event timer right after it works.
You test a VCR
code to see if the
receiver controls a
VCR. The VCR
doesn’t do the test. • Maybe you didn’t turn on the VCR,
maybe you didn’t put a tape in, maybe
you didn’t rewind the tape, or maybe
you took the write-protect tab off the
tape.
• Maybe the code you’re testing doesn’t
work for the VCR.
• Make sure you turn on the VCR and put a rewound tape in. Make sure
the write-protect tab is on the tape so that recording is permitted.
• Try another VCR code from the table.
