NetCommand® Controlled
Recordings
Setting up Recordings
Figure 13
Through NetCommand, you can automatically start and
stop recordings and send signals from one playback
device to a recording device. Recordings can be made
on recordable devices connected to the media center.
The media center can convert digital channels and
IEEE 1394 device signals to analog signals that can be
recorded on NetCommand compatible analog VHS and
S-VHS VCRs.
You can schedule the recording to take place at a later
time and program the recording duration for a minimum
of 30 minutes and a maximum of 6 hours (in 30 minute
increments). The default is 1 hour. During the recording,
the media center can be powered Off. If the media
center is powered On, it must be tuned to the source
that is being recorded.
