∫ To release the unit from recording standby
If you want to record something else before the programme start
time, for example:
Press [F TIMER].
The unit turns on and "F" goes out.
≥Be sure to press [F TIMER] before the programme start time to
put the unit on recording standby. Timer recording will work only
if "F" is displayed.
∫ To cancel recording when recording has
already begun
Press [F TIMER].
Recording stops.
[Note]
≥The built-in clock employs 24-hour system.
≥If the unit is not put in the timer recording standby mode at the
latest 10 minutes before the programmed timer recording
starting time, the "F" flashes on the unit display. In this case,
press [F TIMER] to put the unit in the timer recording standby
mode.
≥"F" flashes when the unit cannot go to timer recording standby
(e.g., a disc isn't loaded, a disc that can't be recorded to is
loaded, or the disc is protected). Check the disc carefully.
≥Even if the unit is put in the timer recording standby mode or the
timer recording is being performed, you can play a programme.
≥The actual time recorded may be longer than the programme
itself when television programmes are recorded using VIDEO
Plus+.
≥"PROG FULL" is displayed if there are already 16 programmes.
≥The remaining time displayed is based on the current recording
mode.
≥When you programme successive timer recordings to start
immediately one after the other, the unit cannot record the part
at the beginning of the later programmes (a few seconds when
recording with DVD-RAM and approximately 30 seconds when
recording with DVD-R).
∫ Setting for control of the recording starting
and ending time by special signal included in
the broadcasting signal (PDC Function)
PDC stands for Programme Delivery Control.
If a TV programme, for example a football game runs longer than
scheduled, is shortened or starts earlier or later, this function
synchronizes the recording start and stop with the actual
broadcasting start and stop of the TV programme.
Conditions for correct operation of the PDC function:
≥"ON" must be selected under "PDC" on the display.
≥The TV station must broadcast PDC signals.
≥The programme starting time must be set correctly to the
starting time listed in the newspaper/magazine.
