Using the System
Set a Manual Event Timer
Use a manual event timer to manually set the start and stop time of a
recording. This is useful for recording all of a sports event, even if it goes
into overtime. Or, you can record part of a program, or several programs one
after the other.
Notes:
•
Before you set a manual timer, use the
Program Guide
or program lists
to find the start and end times you want to set.
•
You can’t set a manual timer for a pay per view program.
•
You must set the end time after the start time, and set the end time at
least one minute later than the start time.
Here’s what to do:
1. Press the MENU button.
2. Select the
Timers
option.
This opens the
Event Timer Management
menu.
3. Select the
Create
option.
This opens the
Create a Manual Event Timer
menu.
Tip: You can
use Event
Timers to
record
programs
automatically,
or you can set
a manual
event timer to
record several
programs that
are on one
after another
on the same
channel.
