Automatic recording from a satellite
tuner
If you have a satellite tuner or some other kind of set top
box connected to the
AV2/L1 input, you can have the
recorder start and stop recording automatically with the
timer settings of the connected component. (If the other
component doesn’t have a built-in timer, you’ll need to
use it with an external timer unit.)
After setting up for Auto Start Recording, this recorder
starts recording when it detects a signal from the other
component. When the signal ceases, the recorder stops
recording.
Important
• It takes a little while for this recorder to switch on and
start recording after detecting a signal. Please bear
this in mind when setting the timer.
• If Auto Start Recording is set, it will not start if
another timer recording is in progress.
• Timer recordings take precedence over Auto Start
Recording. Auto Start Recording will stop if a timer
recording is due to start. After the timer recording
has finished, Auto Start Recording will resume.
1 Set the timer for the satellite receiver (or other
component), then switch it into standby (if
necessary).
Check the manual that came with the receiver if you’re
not sure how to do this.
2 Load a recordable disc into this recorder.
3 Check that the ‘Audio In’ settings for ‘External
Audio’ and ‘Bilingual Recording’ are as you want
them.
See Audio In settings on page 83 for more on these
settings.
4 Set up the recorder.
• Use REC MODE to set the recording quality. See
Setting the picture quality/recording time on page 45
for detailed information.

then ‘Auto Start Recording’.
6 Select ‘Yes’ to switch Auto Start Recording on, or
‘No’ to switch off.
7 Switch the recorder into standby.
The AUTO indicator in the front panel display lights.
The recorder will automatically switch on and start
recording when the other component comes on.
Recording stops when the external component switches
off.
• To cancel Auto Start Recording, press STANDBY/
ON while the recorder is in standby. The AUTO
indicator goes off.
• To cancel Auto Start Recording once recording has
already started, press ì REC for three seconds, then
STOP REC .
• When a timer recording is in progress ahead of Auto
Start Recording, some functions, such as extending
the timer recording and chase play, are not available.

+ button for three seconds to
cancel Auto Start Recording without affecting the
timer recording. The
AUTO indicator goes off.
