Set an Automatic Event Timer
1. Highlight and select a future program in the Browse Banner, in the
Program Guide, or in a Themes list.
This opens the
Create an Event Timer menu.
2. Select a Timer Type option. A check mark shows
up next to the option you select. For example, here
we selected the
PVR option.
3. Select a
Timer Frequency option. A check mark
shows up next to the option you select. For
example, here we selected the
Once option.
4. Only for a Once (one-time), DVR Event Timer,
you can select the
Protect Recording check box.
If you do this, a check mark shows up in the box.
Note: When you “protect” a recorded program, the receiver will ask you
before it records over that program.
5. Select the
Create option to set the event timer. You’ll see a clock picture on
the program in the
Program Guide, and also when you press the INFO
button to get information about the program.
Tip: You can
protect any
recording so
that the
receiver will
not record
over it
without
asking you
first. Just
select Protect
Recording on
the Create an
Event Timer
menu.
