Automatic recording from a
satellite tuner
HDD
If you have a satellite tuner or some other
kind of set top box connected to the INPUT
1/AUTO START REC input, you can have the
recorder start and stop recording
automatically with the timer settings of the
connected component. (If the other
component doesn't have a built-in timer,
you'll need to use it with an external timer
1
unit.)
After setting up for Auto Start Recording, this
recorder starts recording when it detects a
signal from the other component. When the
signal ceases, the recorder stops recording.
Important
• It takes a little while for this recorder to
switch on and start recording after
detecting a signal. Please bear this in
mind when setting the timer.
Note
1 You can't set Auto Start Recording when:
– the recorder is recording or in timer recording standby.
– the HDD is not recordable.
– the HDD already contains the maximum number of titles (999).
• If Auto Start Recording is set, it will not
start if another timer recording is in
progress.

Auto Start Recording. Auto Start
Recording will stop if a timer recording is
