TiVo Series2 用户手册

You can put your DVR in Standby mode by selecting Standby from Messages & Settings. To 
return to normal mode from Standby, press the TiVo button or LIVE TV button.

When the DVR is in Standby:

• Your TV shows a black screen and the lights on the front of the DVR go out.

• Programs that are being recorded or are scheduled to record will still be recorded. If a 

program is being recorded, the red light will turn on.

• The DVR will still connect to the TiVo

®

 service. If the DVR is connecting, the yellow light 

will turn on.

• If you temporarily turned off Parental Controls, Standby mode re-enables them. See page 50 

for more on Parental Controls.

• The DVR will continue to save a portion of live TV—up to 30 minutes of programming.

• If live TV is paused when Standby is selected, the DVR will remain paused for up to 30 

minutes.

• If the program guide was set to display a category filter, filtering will be turned off.

If you used only RF coaxial cables to 

connect your TV programming 

source (antenna or cable) to the DVR, and 

also to connect the DVR to your TV, 

Standby mode allows RF signal pass-

through. 

This means you can watch channels on 

your RF program source using your TV’s 

tuner instead of the DVR’s tuner—and that 

means you can watch one channel while 

recording another! Keep in mind, you won’t 

have TiVo service functionality in live TV 

(pause, rewind, etc.) while the DVR is in 

Standby.
