8.2 Recording with the timer

The menu "Timer recording" is intended primarily for recording Pay-TV programmes (e.g. Premiere). When using a Metz video recorder of

the VC, VE or VD (VF since April 2000) series you can also record SAT programmes* with this menu. For this purpose, the video recorder

must be connected to the EURO 1 socket. *only if a SAT upgrade kit is fitted

8 timers can be programmed up to 2 months in advance.

Example: A VHS video recorder with Data Logic is connected to the EURO 1 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder (e.g. Premiere) is

connected to the EURO 3 socket. You now wish to record a film running on a Pay TV channel.

1. Call the „Timer recording“

2. Enter the date and time of

the film to be recorded

(see example)

3. Store the programmed data

and return to the TV picture

or standby mode

If no timers have been programmed before, the table in

the menu is empty. If you have previously programmed

timer recordings, these will be displayed in the table.

The current time of day and the current date are nee-

ded for programming in the timer menu. The time is

normally obtained from the Hi Text function and the

date from the VPS signal. Note that some stations do

not transmit VPS signals and/or Hi Text.

If the time and/or date are not detected automati-

cally, you must enter them manually.

The month, the day, the hours and the minutes must

each be entered in the form of two digits, e.g. 01.09

for September 1 and 09:00 for 9 AM.

If you make a mistake when entering the date and

time, you can delete the entry in the current column or

the entire line by pressing the C key. The entire line

can be deleted only if the key symbols at the top of the

menu are displayed in colour.

In the column "VTR", which can be selected only if a

video recorder with "Data Logic" is connected, one of

the following settings can be selected with key A:

—

No timer data are transferred to the video recorder.

The video recorder must be programmed manually.

If a "Data Logic" video recorder is connected.

A "Data Logic" video recorder will not function automati-

cally without "LV" and must be programmed manually.

Timer recordings are not possible if the childlock

is switched on.

This does not apply to video recorders with data

transfer!

The same data must also be entered on the AV

programme position of the video recorder or on a

programme position where the video recorder

does not receive a station.

The recording can be aborted at any time by pres-

sing the keys , and sequentially, in

this order, or by pressing the C key with the timer

menu displayed.
