4.1. THE TIMERS

The event timers are a kind of alarm clock. An event

timer reminds you when a program or a timed

VCR recording starts. You can set the next timers:

■ VCR timer, to automatically switch over to the

timed program before it really starts. This allows

you to record a program on a video tape (video

recorder);

■ Reserved timer, to automatically switch over to the

timed program before it really starts or when the

receiver is in standby, to switch on the receiver.

the relevant data is already shown in the timer. You

can change the settings as follows:

■ Date, to set the start date for the timer;

■ Start time, to set the start time in hours/minutes;

■ Stop time, to set stop time in hours/minutes;

■ Period, to set the timer once or for every

occurrence;

■ Status, to set (active) or delete (inactive) the timer.

■ Store settings, to program the timer.

Timers are shown in the EPG window as clocks.

In the List-Timers page, it is possible to get a list of the

timers that are set. In this page you also can change or

delete a set timer.
