video recorder timers as well as channel switching timers. In terms of their
programming, these timers differ only in that the relevant type of timer is speci-
fi ed. In Standby operation, the hard disk and video recorder timers are shown
by a clock symbol on the display. As described in this chapter, you can either
program the timer manually or with the help of the EPG function.
1. Hard disk timer
This function can be used to switch your digital receiver on and off for the
selected broadcast, in order to record onto the hard disk when you are away.
If the receiver was switched on by means of the hard disk timer, this will be
indicated by the message "_ PVR Timer" shown in the display. Some functions
of the remote control (e.g. Accessing the main menu) are not operational.
2. Video recorder timer
When you use a video recorder timer, your digital receiver will be switched on
and off for the channel selected, so that it may be recorded, e.g. on a video re-
corder, in your absence. If the receiver was switched on by means of the video
recorder timer, this will be indicated by the message "_ VCR Timer" shown in
the display. Some functions of the remote control are not operational.
Be careful to note that the relevant recorder must also be channeld.
3. Channel change timer
If your receiver is in normal operating mode, it will switch to the programmed
channel at the time selected. In contrast to the setting for a hard disk or video
recorder timer, the remote controls remain fully functional, and the receiver will
not be switched off at the end of the channel.
