Timer Programming Menu - Panasonic TX-26LXD500 Operating Instructions Manual

Timer Programming menu

For an external recording device to record DVB programmes, the integrated DVB system must be active to provide the signal.
The Timer programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you wish to record. At the correct time, the DVB system will
switch on and tune to the correct station (even if the TV is in standby mode). If the recording device is compatible with Q-Link or
similar technologies (see page 32) and connected to the TV's AV2 / AV4 terminal, you do not need to programme the device – the
DVB system will control the recording process.
The device must be connected to the TV's AV2 / AV4 terminal using a SCART cable to record DVB programmes.
