Notes
• Depending on the software for sending timer recording
setting email, a part of the first line may go to a new line if
it is long. If this occurs, timer recording setting content will
not be read correctly.
• If there is an excessively large number of email messages
on the mail server, the timer recording setting email may
not be received.
• When the recorder does not have an always-on internet
connection, timer recording setting using email cannot be
done.
• In some cases, a timer recording might not be possible
depending on the start time of the timer recording and the
recorder's operating mode.
• An email account compatible with POP3 or APOP is
*
required as a destination of timer recording setting email.
You cannot use an account such as a cell phone email
address in which you cannot send or receive email from
your home PC.
• If you receive email using a PC which is set to
automatically delete email from the mail server, the
recorder may not receive the timer recording setting email.
• Only one timer recording setting can be done per email.
• If an email message begins with the same format as the
timer recording setting email, it may be regarded as a timer
recording setting email and may be received by the
recorder instead of the PC.
• If the email timer recording keyword is entered incorrectly,
you will not be able to set a timer recording. In addition, if a
symbol is part of the email timer recording keyword, it will
cause an error. Therefore, you will not be able to set a
timer recording.
When not specified, the recorder selects "HDD"
as the recording media, "SP" as the recording
quality. For the other recording settings, the
setup menus are referred to.
