This video recorder is intended for reception, recording, and reproduction of picture and sound signals. Any other application is expressly prohibited.

If the recorder is exposed to drastic temperature changes, for example taking it from a cold to a warm place, connect the recorder to the mains supply and let it stand at the new place for at least two hours without a cassette loaded.

Place the recorder on a flat and hard surface. Do not place the recorder on a mat or anything

similar. Do not place any objects (e.g. newspapers) on the recorder as this would cover the ventilation slits which are necessary for cooling.

Do not place the recorder in the immediate vicinity of a heat source or in direct sunlight, as this would also prevent appropriate cooling.

Keep the recorder away from magnetic fields (e.g. loudspeakers).

Tuning the TV set to the recorder

The TV set receives programmes from different stations on certain channels.

The recorder also transmits on such a channel (between channels 30 and 40 ± 2 channels in the UHF band) to which the TV set must now be tuned. A “transmitter” is installed in the recorder to assist you in finding this channel.

This adjustment is not necessary if the recorder and the TV set are connected with a EURO-AV cable (see chapter “Connecting” on page 3).

If necessary, switch the recorder’s transmitter off to prevent picture interference, see chapter on this page.

Preparation

Switch the TV set on.

Select the programme position for the video recorder at the TV set (AV programme position).

Tuning TV stations

Television stations broadcast programmes on different frequencies/channels.

The recorder has a built-in receiver. It can thus receive and record television programmes independently of the TV set.

First, you must tune your recorder to the channels used by the different TV stations.

99 programme positions are available. They can be occupied as required with TV stations from the aerial or a cable connection.

A number of options are available for tuning:

1. By transfer of data from the TV set. The TV set must be provided with Megalogic functions.

2. With the automatic tuning system (ATS euro plus). The recorder searches, sorts, and stores all channels/special channels which can be received at its location.

This procedure depends on the language and country you select, as well as the quality of reception of the TV stations.

If you are not satisfied with the order in which the TV stations are allocated, the order can be changed later.

3. By entering data directly.

4. By searching manually, for example if there are new TV stations, or if the recorder cannot find a TV station with the automatic tuning system.

Accepting data from the TV set (Megalogic function)

If the recorder is connected to a TV set with Megalogic function, the recorder automatically accepts the TV programmes that are stored in the TV set. To enable the recorder to this, you must carry out the following steps in the order indicated.

Recorder and TV set must be connected with the EURO-AV cable provided with your recorder, and the TV set must be switched on.

Remove the plug for the recorder from the mains.

Re-insert the plug for the recorder into the mains. – The recorder automatically accepts the TV

programmes from the TV set. Thus the recorder will have the same programme position assignments as the TV set.

Settings
