7.16 Timer recordings
Your receiver is equipped with video recorder timers as well as with
programme switching timers. In terms of their programming, these
timers differ only in that the relevant type of timer is specified.
You may programme the timers manually as described in this chap-
ter, or by means of the SFI function as described in Point 7.15.7.2.
1. Video recorder timer
When you use a video recorder timer, your digital receiver will be
switched on resp. off for the programme selected, so that it may be
recorder, e.g. on a video recorder, in your absence. Please note that
you must programme your video recorder appropriately to record the
programme.
If the receiver was switched on by a video recorder timer, this will be
indicated by the message “rEc” in the display. In this mode, most of
the functions of the remote control are disabled, to avoid an acciden-
tal interruption of the recording. In stand-by mode, an active timer will
be indicated by a blinking of the colon in the time display resp. in the
LED.
2. Programme change time
If your receiver is in normal operating mode,it will switch to the pro-
grammed programme slot at the time selected. In contrast to the set-
ting for a video recorder timer, the controls remain fully functional,
and the receiver will not be switched off at the end of the program-
me.
