• If your DBS does not respond to the
code at step 7, the Controller will
not change channels at the DBS
during a timer recording. In this
case, you must select the channel to
be recorded at the DBS before a
timer recording begins. Enter the
DBS output channel at step 3 on
page 40. Leave the DBS on for the
timer recording. Details are on page
eight.
