With Beo4, you can switch on and
operate a VCR you have connected to
BeoSystem 1 and registered in the
EXTERNAL SOURCES menu*. All
playback, wind, and stop functions
can be operated with Beo4. Eject a
video cassette via the close-up
operation panel on the VCR.
A set of functions available for your
VCR can be seen on a menu overlay
that you call up on the screen. You
can then operate these functions via
Beo4.
With BeoSystem 1 and Beo4, you can
make an instant recording of any
source you choose.
A timed recording must either be
preset via on-screen guides available
with the source you wish to record
from, or via the VCR's own menus. In
the second case, the VCR's own
remote control must be used. The
Record lock function can help ensure
that a signal is available between the
source and the VCR when the timed
recording is preset to take place.
*NOTE! Please refer to Register equipment
connected to BeoSystem 1 for information about
registering equipment in the EXTERNAL SOURCES
menu.
