NetCommand ® Controlled Recordings
Record To Setup
Figure 8
Your TV is able to start and stop recordings
automatically and send the signals from one external
playback device to another external recording device.
It is also able to convert digital channels and IEEE 1394
device signals to analog signals that can be recorded
on NetCommand compatible analog VHS and S-VHS
VCRs. You cannot record from an analog channel or
device or a VHS or S-VHS VCR to a digital recording
device such as a DVCR or A/V Disc.
You can schedule the recording to take place at a
later time and program the recording duration for a
minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 6 hours (in
30 minute increments). The default is 1 hour.
When a digital recording is being made, the TV will
direct the signals to the recording device using the
IEEE 1394 cable if available, or analog, if not. When
an analog recording is being made, the TV will direct
signals to the recording device.
During a recording, the TV can be powered Off. If the
TV is powered On, it must be tuned to the source that
is being recorded.
