Using TV programme presets
Using the EPG, you can easily preset digital TV programmes for
watching (auto channel select) and recording later.
You must also adjust your recording equipment settings to record the
programme. Refer to the operation manual provided with your
recording equipment.
Using auto channel select and standby recording
With the power to the system left on, this function automatically
selects a preset TV programme when its on-air time comes. That way
you will not miss the start of an important TV programme because you
were enjoying another TV programme.
Even if the system is in the standby mode when the preset TV
programme's on-air time comes, the built-in DTV tuner wakes up and
outputs AV signals for recording.

ENTER).

information appears.

With the system switched on, a channel switch alarm message
appears approximately 60 seconds before execution and the channel
is switched a short time before the start of the programme.
Note
• Auto channel select is not executed when the system is in the
standby mode.
• Even in the standby mode, preset programmes can be recorded as
only the built-in DTV tuner wakes up and outputs AV signals when
the preset time comes.
