DISH Network 612 Manual De Usuario

You set up an event timer for a 
program that is repeated (such as a 
regularly scheduled program), but the 
timer does not operate for a showing 
of the program.

You may have set up a timer with 
an incorrect frequency.

Remember that a Once event timer 
operates just one time. A Mon.-Fri. 
event timer operates Monday through 
Friday on the same channel at the same 
time. A Daily event timer does the same, 
Monday through Sunday. A Weekly 
event timer operates once a week on 
the same channel at the same time. All 
Episodes timers will record all episodes 
of that program, while New Episodes 
timers will record only the current 
season. A DishPASS timer records 
programs matching your DishPASS 
search term.

You set up an event timer, but the 
timer does not operate at all.

•

You may have several timers 
set up for the same time and 
the event timer you set is at a 
lower priority than others.

•

You may have selected New 
Episodes and the timer you 
set was for an episode that is 
not new.

•

Check the Priorities as described on 
page 52.

•

Check the Timer Frequency as 
described on page 52.

You set up a DishPASS Timer and 
you notice that you have no space left 
on your My Recordings List.

The DishPASS Timer may have 
included more matching 
programs than what you 
expected.

Delete that DishPASS Timer and begin 
again. See page 58.

You stop the operation of an event 
timer for one showing of a program 
that is repeated (such as a regularly 
scheduled program), but the timer 
operates for the next showing.

Stopping the event timer applies 
only to the current showing of the 
program.

To stop all operations of a repeated 
event timer, you must delete the event 
timer.

: The receiver deletes a Once 

event timer when it operates.

You edit an automatic event timer. 
The timer does not start or does not 
end according to the program for 
which you set the timer.

Editing an automatic event timer 
converts it to a manual event 
timer. Such a timer starts and 
stops at the times you specify, 
not the start and stop times of 
any specific program.

If you want an automatic event timer to 
start and stop according to a specific 
program, avoid editing that event timer.

You try to set up a manual event 
timer. The receiver displays an Error 
message.

You may have tried to set a 
manual event timer with invalid 
start or stop times.

Review the information on manual 
event timers on page 57.

The receiver does not display the 
program name for a manual event 
timer.

The receiver may not be able to 
display a program name for a 
manual event timer.

Use the Program Guide or a printed 
schedule to find the program name.

You set an event timer. The event 
timer misses the beginning or the end 
of a program.

The program may have started a 
little earlier than scheduled, or it 
may have run over its scheduled 
ending time.

•

Use the Start 1 min. early option to 
start any event timer one minute 
early, except for a Pay-Per-View 
event.

•

Use a manual event timer to start any 
event timer at the times you set 
yourself, except for a Pay-Per-View 
event.
