Chapter 4: Program reminders and recording timers
Scheduling program reminders and recording timers
There are two kinds of timers you can set to help you manage your TV viewing:
•
You can schedule a reminder to alert you when a program is about to begin.
• You can schedule a timer that will automatically record a program on your VCR
(on model SIR-S310W only).
To set your DIRECTV Receiver to remind you when a program is about to begin, or
(on model SIR-S310W) to record a program for you on your VCR, follow these
steps:
1 Press the GUIDE button on your remote.
The Guide appears.
Note: Timers are not available in the Logo Guide. If you are viewing the Logo
Guide, use the red R button on your remote control, and select Grid Guide.
You can only set timers for future programs (not for programs that are currently
under way).
2 Highlight the program you wish to record or be reminded about, and press the
button.
Pressing the button once sets a program reminder. Pressing it again will
either remove the program reminder (on model SIR-S300W), or will set the
program to be recorded on your VCR (on model SIR-S310W).
A clock icon is added to the
program listing in the Guide when
a program reminder is scheduled
for a program. A videotape icon replaces the clock
icon when a recording timer has
been scheduled for a program.
