Recording Features
Your VCR provides many ways to captur e programming:
1. Recording lets you press one button to r e cord a program.
2. Express Recording (XPR) allows recording to start while a pr o gram is being watched.
This feature automatically stops recording after a designated period of time.
3. Timer Recording program the VCR for a daily, weekly, or one-time r ecording which will
automatically start and stop at the times you set.
4. Timer Recording with VCR Plus+ System program the VCR by entering a PlusCode
programming number found in most TV pr o gram listings.
Express Recording (XPR)
Use XPR to quickly r e cord the remaining portion of a pr ogram being watched. XPR is a gr e at
way to capture the end of a sporting event that has run into overtime or a live br oadcast that
runs long.
XPR works in 30-minute incr e ments. You can capture the last 30, 60, 90, etc. minutes of
programming (providing on tape length), up to four hours total.
