TIMER recording from Sat with VIDEO Plus+

VIDEO Plus+ Codes for Satellite Receivers
This DVD Recorder is not designed to control (switch on or change channel) your satellite
receiver, however, it can be taught to recognise VIDEO Plus+ Codes for Satellite stations.
The Satellite Receiver must be switched on and the correct station selected.
Some receivers have their own timer facility for this purpose.
Please refer to your Satellite Receiver instructions for use of such timer facilities.
For your DVD Recorder to recognise the VIDEO Plus+ Codes for each satellite station, you
must teach your DVD Recorder which channel or AV input to record from for the first time.
Otherwise when setting a VIDEO Plus+ recording, the [- -] symbol will appear in the
channel position indicating that the DVD Recorder does not know which channel position
to set.
Once you have set the channel/AV input the DVD Recorder will remember it whenever you
use a VIDEO Plus+ Code for the station again.
VIDEO Plus+
Press the VIDEO Plus+ button.
Enter a VIDEO Plus+ Code from a Satellite TV Guide for a satellite channel,
e.g. Sky 1 using the Numeric buttons. Press
Press the ENTER button. [ - - ] will appear instead of a channel number/AV input.
Press the CH button to select the channel or AV input that is to be used for recording
from the satellite channel.
Press the ENTER button to memorise the setting. The DVD Recorder will now
automatically set the programme position or AV input correctly when a VIDEO Plus+
recording is set for this satellite station in the future.
Press to select the programme that you have just set. Now press the
CANCEL/RESET button to delete it from the timer recording list. It is no
longer needed.
Repeat the steps above until you have set and deleted dummy timer recordings for
each of the satellite stations that you will make VIDEO Plus+ recordings from.
Press RETURN when you have finished.
