the receiver displays a menu giving you the option to delete an existing
timer. If you do not delete an existing timer, you will not be able to create
any new ones.

You can edit almost any feature of an event timer.

You can edit both automatic and manual event timers.

Editing an automatic event timer converts the timer to a manual event
timer that operates at the times you set, not the actual program times.

1. Press the Menu button.

2. Select the

Timers

option.

3. The receiver displays the

Event Timer Management

menu.

4. Select the event timer that you want to edit. A check mark appears in

the box next to the event timer. Select the Edit option.

5. You may change the

Timer Type

,

Timer Frequency

, or

Channel

. To do

this, select each option that you want.

6. If you want to change the

Start Time

, the

End Time

, or the

Date

, select

the Set Date/Time option to display the

Set Date/Time

for Manual Timer

menu. Otherwise, skip to step 9, below.

7. Use the NUMBER PAD buttons to enter the

Start Time

(this includes

selecting

AM

or

PM

) and the

End Time

(this includes selecting

AM

or

PM

).

8. Use the NUMBER PAD buttons to enter the

Date

.

9. Select the Create Timer option.

Tip: The receiver
deletes Once
event timers
when they
operate. You must
delete all other
types of event
timers yourself.

Tip: Remember
that editing an
automatic event
timer converts the
timer to a manual
event timer. This is
why the receiver
displays the Edit a
Manual Event
Timer menu.
