Highlight the program you wish to record or be reminded about, and press the SELECT button.
Pressing the SELECT button once sets a program reminder. Pressing it again sets the program
to be recorded on your VCR.
Once you have set a reminder, when the program is about to begin, the DIRECTV
®
HD
Receiver displays a message reminding you about the program.
To use the program recording feature, you must have correctly connected and positioned the
VCR control cable. You must also set up the DIRECTV
®
HD Receiver to communicate with your
VCR (see the first section of this chapter).
Make sure there is a tape in your VCR and that the VCR is turned off before the start time of
any programs you have set to be recorded.
Reviewing and modifying reminders and recording timers
The Timers item in the SETUP menu allows you to review, modify, or create new program
reminders and program recording timers.
Here’s how:
1
Press the MENU button on your remote control.
2
Highlight the Setup menu item, then press the SELECT button.
The Setup menu appears.
3
Highlight the Timers menu item, then press the SELECT button.
The Timers screen appears.
If you have previously scheduled program reminders or
recording timers, they are listed here.
A clock icon is added to the
program listing when a program
reminder is scheduled.
A videotape icon replaces the clock
icon when a recording timer has
been scheduled.
4
To review your previously scheduled program reminders and recording timers, look through
this list.
5
To modify or check the details for any previously scheduled timers, highlight that timer from
the list, then press the SELECT button.
To schedule a new program reminder or recording timer, highlight a blank line from the list,
then press the SELECT button.
The Timer No. screen appears.

Highlight the option you wish to change.
For new timers or for timers you previously scheduled
using the Timers screen in the Setup menu, you can
modify the channel number, the start time and date,
the end time and date, the frequency, and the mode
for the timer (whether it is a program reminder or a
recording timer).
For timers that you scheduled using the on-screen Guide,
you can only change the frequency and mode setting.
Once you have highlighted the option you wish to modify, use the up- or down-arrow buttons
on your remote control to edit the option setting. Use the left- and right-arrow buttons to
highlight different options.
To delete the selected timer, use the right-arrow button on your remote control to highlight
the on-screen Clear button, then press the SELECT button.
7
When you have finished reviewing or modifying the timer, use the right-arrow button on your
remote control to highlight the on-screen Back button, then press the SELECT button.
The Edit Timer screen disappears, and you return to the Timers screen.
8
To return to the Setup menu, highlight the on-screen Back button, then press the SELECT button.
To exit the Menu system and return to TV viewing, press the EXIT button on your remote control.
