Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is  tted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse. 2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362

5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3 Re t the fuse cover.

If the  tted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug  tted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L).

z As these colours may not correspond with the

colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: – Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black. – Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red. – Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or ˛) or coloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

Special Features

English

This function enables you to record a programme from your Satellite Receiver or any other devices. Make sure that the device is connected to the EXT2 AUX-I/O socket of this recorder, and the timer setting has been done on the connected device.

‘Time Shift Buffer’

As soon as you turn on this recorder, the programme showing on the TV will be stored into the ‘Time Shift Buffer’. It acts as a temporary HDD storage of your recordings. The contents will be automatically deleted after 6 hours or when you turn off this recorder. To store the contents on the hard disk permanently, you have to mark the section in the ‘Time Shift Buffer’ for recording to prevent them from being deleted.

‘FlexTime’

You can watch or recall a TV programme while it is still being recorded. You do not have to wait until the end of the recording before starting playback. You can also watch a different programme from the hard disk while it is recording something else.

i.LINK, is also known as ‘FireWire’ and ‘IEEE 1394’. This connection is used for the transfer of high bandwidth digital signals as used by digital video (DV) camcorders. It carries all audio and video signals via a single cable.

This is a simple programming system for recorders. To use it, enter the programming number associated with your television programme. You can  nd this number in your favourite listings magazine.

‘Instant Replay’

You can repeat a scene of a live TV programme by pressing JUMP BACK button on the remote control, as often as you like. If you wish to return to the live TV programme, just press TUNER.

‘Pause Live TV’

A live TV programme is now under your control. You can pause the programme by pressing PAUSE button and resume playback at the scene it was interrupted by pressing PLAY button. If you want to return to the live TV programme, just press TUNER.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of disc should I use for recording?

You can only record on DVD±R or DVD±RW discs. DVD±R/±RW is the most compatible recordable DVD format on the market today. They are fully compatible with most of the existing DVD-Video players and DVD-ROM drives in computers.

What is the capacity of a DVD±R/ ±RW disc?

4.7GB, or equivalent to six CDs. You can store only one hour of recordings on a single disc at the highest quality (DVD standard) and about 8 hours recordings at the lowest quality (VHS standard).

What is the difference between DVD±R and DVD±RW?

DVD±R is “recordable” and DVD±RW is “erasable” and “rewritable”. With a DVD±R, you can record multiple sessions on the same disc. But when the disc is full, you cannot record any more on the disc. The DVD±RW allows you to record over the same disc again and again.

What is DV?

Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can connect a DV-equipped camcorder to this recorder using a single DV cable for input and output of audio, video, data and control signals. – This recorder is only compatible with DVformat (DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital satellite tuners and Digital VHS video recorders are not compatible. – You cannot connect more than one DV camcorder at a time to this recorder. – You cannot control this recorder from external equipment connected via the DV IN socket.

Can I copy a VHS tape or DVD from an external player?

Yes, but only if the VHS tape or DVD is not copy-protected.

What are Titles and Chapters?

A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters, which are similar to the Titles and Chapters of a book. A Title is often a complete movie and is broken down into Chapters, or individual scenes from the movies.

Title

Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter

chapter markers

Programmes are recorded as a single title. They may consist of one chapter or a few chapters within a title, depending on the recording settings.

How do I set up Titles and Chapters?

The recorder will automatically create a new Title every time you start a new recording. You can then add Chapters to these recordings manually or have them automatically inserted at a speci c intervals.

What does “ nalising” a disc do?

Finalising a disc locks the disc so it can no longer be recorded. This is only required for DVD±R. It will then be compatible with virtually any DVD player. To remove a disc without  nalising it, simply stop recording and eject the disc. You will still be able to record on the disc if there is room for more recordings.

How good is the quality of the recording?

There are a few picture quality levels to choose from, ranging from “HQ” (1 hour recording at high quality) to “SEP” (8 hours recording at VHS quality) on a recordable DVD. Press REC MODE button on the remote control to choose the quality level that best suits your purpose and the length of recording.

Record Mode

HQ (high quality) SP (standard play) SPP (standard play plus) LP (long play) EP (extended play) SLP (super long play) SEP (super extended play)

Hours of recordings can be stored on the HDD or an Ł empty 4.7GB DVD recordable disc.

Care and Safety Information

English

CAUTION! High voltage! Do not open. You run the risk of getting an electric shock.

The machine does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Please leave all maintenance work to quali ed personnel.

Setup precautions

Finding a suitable location

– Place the set on a  at, hard and stable surface. Do not place the set on a carpet. – Do not position the set on top of other equipment that might heat it up (e.g., receiver or ampli er). – Do not put anything under the set (e.g., CDs, magazines). – Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power plug can be reached easily.

Space for ventilation

– Place the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4.5”) clearance from the rear and the top of the set and 5cm (2.3”) from the left and right to prevent overheating.

5cm (2.3")

10cm (4.5")

5cm (2.3")

Avoid high temperatures, moisture, water and dust

– Apparatus must not be exposed to dripping or splashing. – Do not place any sources of danger on the apparatus (e.g., liquid  lled objects, lighted candles).

10cm (4.5")

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur (frozen picture, sound disruptions, picture distortions) because the disc inside the recorder is dirty . To avoid these problems, discs should be cleaned on a regular basis.

To clean a disc, use a micro  bre cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the center to the edge in a straight line.

CAUTION!

Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays intended for discs.

HDD (Hard Disk Drive) handling care

The HDD is a fragile piece of device that is easily prone to damage due to its long recording capacity and high speed operation. – Do not move the unit while it is turned on. – Do not remove the AC power plug from the power outlet during operation. – Do not use the unit in excessively hot or humid places. It may cause condensation to form inside the unit.

If the HDD fails, playback and recording are not possible. In this case, it will be necessary to replace the HDD unit.

WARNING!

The HDD is not a device for storing recorded content permanently. We recommend that you copy the important video content to a recordable DVD disc as backup.

About ‘VPS/PDC’

‘VPS’ (Video Programming System) or ‘PDC’ (Programme Delivery Control) is used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than was scheduled, this recorder will then turn on and off at the correct time.

VPS/PDC is intended to record the entire programme. To set a time that is longer/ shorter than the VPS/PDC broadcast time, you must turn off the VPS/PDC.

Timer recording (SHOWVIEW® System)

This is a simple timer programming system. To use it, enter the SHOWVIEW® programming number associated with your television programme. You can  nd this number in your TV listings magazine.

All the information needed by this recorder for programming is contained in the programming number.

Turn on the TV to the correct

programme number for the recorder (e.g. ‘EXT’, ‘0’, ‘AV’).

Record on DVD Recordable Disc

English

IMPORTANT! – You can only copy the recorded titles in the hard disk drive of this recorder to a recordable DVD. Direct recording from the TV programmes or external input source to a recordable DVD is not possible. – Copy-protected (Copy-Once or Copy-Never) movies and DVD Videos cannot be copied to the HDD.

About copying

You can copy a recorded title from the HDD (hard disk drive) to a recordable DVD.

The time required for copying from HDD to a recordable DVD depends on the recording mode of the HDD recordings. It is not possible to change the recording mode for the copying process. It is therefore important that you choose the appropriate recording mode when you set up the recording to the HDD.

The copying process is done at a higher speed than the recording.

Discs for recording

Two different types of DVD recordable discs can be used with this recorder:

DVD±RW (DVD Rewritable) – Discs that are re-writable can be used for multiple recordings once existing data is erased.

DVD±R (DVD Recordable) – Discs can only be used for a single recording. Each new recording is always added at the end of all previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten. – Editing can be done on DVD±R discs as long as they have not been  nalised. – You can also delete unwanted recordings. However, the disc space occupied by the deleted recordings cannot be recovered for further recording. – To play a DVD±R disc on other DVD player, it must be  nalised (see page 53). After this is done, no more data can be added to the disc.

The following information will be stored on the disc : – Recording mode – Title/name of recording – Date and time of recording – Index picture of title

TIPS: Ensure that there is suf cient space available on the recordable DVD before recording. You have to  nalise the DVD±R before it can be played on other players, see page 53.

Problem Solution

The recorded DVD cannot be played back on another DVD player.

The message ‘Disc contains unknown data’ appears.

Picture is fuzzy and brightness varies when copying DVD Video discs or prerecorded video cassettes.

– If a recording is too short, it is possible that a DVD player

cannot detect it. Observe the following ‘minimum recording

times’. Recording mode : {HQ} – 5 minutes, {SP} – 10 minutes,

{SPP} – 13 minutes, {LP} – 15 minutes, {EP} – 20 minutes, {SLP}

– 30 minutes, {SEP} – 30 minutes.

– This message may appear if you insert a disc that was not

 nalised. DVD±Rs that have not been  nalised are very sensitive

to  ngerprints, dust, or dirt. This may cause problems during

recording. To use the disc again, do the following :

1) Make sure that the surface of the disc is clean.

2) Press OPEN/CLOSE on the recorder to open the disc tray.

– Error during recording: The title may be missing. – Error while changing the title/index picture: The original title/

index picture may be visible.

– Error while  nalising: The disc appears not to have been

 nalised.

– This happens if you try to copy DVDs or video cassettes that

have been copy-protected. Even though the picture on the TV is  ne, the recording on the recordable DVD is faulty.

This interference is unavoidable with copy-protected DVDs or

video cassettes.

– The recordable DVD has a limited recording lifetime, use a new

disc for recording.

Glossary

English

Analogue: Sound that has not been turned into

numbers. Analogue sound varies, while digital sound has speci c numerical values. These sockets send audio through two channels, the left and right.

Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9.

AUDIO OUT sockets: Red and white sockets on the back of the system that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc).

Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter you want.

Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL. These sockets send audio through multiple channels, instead of just two channels as analogue does.

Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc recorded on a DVD.

Index Picture Screen: A screen that gives an overview of a DVD±RW or DVD±R. An Index Picture represents each recording.

HDD (Hard disk drive): This is a mass data storage device used in computers, etc. Disks are  at, circular, rigid plates coated with a thin magnetic media. Magnetic heads record data on the rapidly spinning disks. This facilitates the reading and writing of large amounts of data at high speed.

JPEG: A very common digital still picture format. A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features small decrease in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio.

MP3: A  le format with a sound data compression system. “MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using the MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times more data then a regular CD.

PBC: Playback Control. Refers to the signal recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling playback. By using menu screens recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy interactive playback and searching.

PCM: Pulse Code Modulation. A digital audio encoding system.

Parental control: Limits disc play according to the age of the users or the limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback will be prohibited if the software’s level is higher than the user-set level.

Region code: A system allowing discs to be played only in the region designated. This unit will only play discs that have compatible region codes. You can  nd the region code of your unit by looking on the product label. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or ALL regions).

S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an SVideo In socket.

Title: The longest section of a movie or music feature on DVD. Each title is assigned a title number, enabling you to locate the title you want.

VIDEO OUT socket: Yellow socket on the back of the system that sends the DVD picture video to a TV.
