Satellite Link
You can set the Unit to start recording whenever it detects a video signal from the External Tuner (Cable/Satellite or Converter Set-top Box).
Preparing for the Satellite Link Timer Recording:
Preparation on the tuner
• Satellite link accepts only the connection from L1 (rear) with the
External Tuner (Cable/Satellite or Converter Set-top Box). (The
connection from L2 cannot read any signals from the External Tuner.)
• The External Tuner (Cable/Satellite or Converter Set-top Box) should
be equipped with some kind of timer function. Using timer function
for the tuner, set it to output audio/video signals when it comes to the
time you want to start recording and to stop an output of audio/video
signals when it comes to the time you want to finish the recording.
Refer to the External Tuner's manual on how to set the timer.
• Make sure to turn off the External Tuner when you finish setting it up.
