You must buy a pay per view program before you can set an automatic event
timer for it. You can't set a manual event timer for a pay per view program.
You can't edit an event timer for a pay per view program.
When you've locked the receiver, you must enter the password before you
can set an automatic event timer for a locked program. You can set a manual
event timer for a locked program and not enter the password. If you do set a
timer like this, when the timer works the receiver may display only an error
message or a password entry menu. If you've set a DVR Event Timer or a
VCR Event Timer, the recording will show only the error message or
password menu.
If you use a DVR Event Timer to record a locked program, you must enter
the password to play back the program. If you record a block of two or more
programs and just one of them is locked, you must enter the password to
play back any of them. For example, if you set an event timer to record a
block of three programs and one of them is an adult movie, you must enter
the password to watch any of the three programs.
If the receiver is off when a DVR Event Timer, Auto-Tune Event Timer, or
VCR Event Timer works, the receiver will turn on. When the program ends,
the receiver will turn off unless you press any remote control or front panel
buttons while the timer is in operation.
If the receiver is off when a Reminder Event Timer starts, the receiver will
turn on and stay on.
You can set a limited number of event timers. If you try to set more, the
receiver displays a menu where you can delete an existing timer. If you
don't delete an existing timer, you won't be able to set any new ones.
: Remember, you can use the DishDVR features to record a program
Note
without a VCR!
To use VCR Event Timers, you must connect the receiver's back panel
audio/video outputs to the audio/video inputs on the VCR. See page 29
