To this end, and according to the features of the receivers, you must:
- either program the receiver with the same beginning and end times, then switch off the
DTH 8005 and the receiver,
- or leave the satellite receiver switched on, on the channel to record, program the
DTH 8005, then switch it off.

Note: if you selected AV2 during step 4, you do not need to enter the start and stop times, since it is the
device that is connected that triggers the start and stop of the recording at the times set via its
programming menu.
