System 710 (130-1253) Timer Faxback Doc. # 6640
Using The Timer
The system 710 features three timer-controlled functions: timer recording,
timer alarm and timer sleep. You can store two separate timer programs
(recording and/or alarm) into PGM-1 and PGM-2.
TIMER RECORDING
For timer-controlled broadcast recording, two setting are available: ONCE
and EVERY. Choose ONCE to record a broadcast once. Choose EVERY to
record a broadcast every day at the same time.
Make sure the System 710's clock is set correctly before using the timer-
controlled functions.
Timer recording takes two steps, setting the timer and activating the
timer. Be sure you have loaded a blank tape or one that you want to record
over into TAPE 2, and you have stored the station you want to record into
one of the tuner's channels.

TURNING ON THE TIMER
After you store a timer recording program and/or timer alarm, follow these
steps to turn on the timer.

If you stored programs into both PGM 1 and PGM 2, press IN/OUT until
both program numbers (1 and 2) appear on the display. The program
number with the earlier start time is underlined.
2. Press POWER to turn off the power. At the start time, the power turns
on and recording begins or the timer alarm sounds. At the memorized
end time, the System 710's power turns off.
Note: If you do not turn power off, the timer does not function.

activated. To reactivate timer recording, press IN/OUT until the REC or
WAKE and TIMER indicators light.

amount of time, then automatically turn off. The sleep timer
automatically turns off the power of all components. You can set the
timer in 30 minute increments, from 1/2 hour to 2 hours from the present
time.
