Hi Folks,
In the event of a power cut does the HDR FOX T2 remember tuning and schedules? If so, for how long?

TIA

Martin

Yes it does, afaik near enough for ever. The data will either be on the HDD or in NVRAM.

Last night I placed my Humax in standby and noticed about 5 Min.s later that the hardisk was still spinning, I checked that there was no REC indicator showing it was recording and thought I had spotted a bug. To clear the 'bug' I power cycled the Humax but it still settled down with the hardisc spinning, Then five Mins. later the REC lit-up and I realised that the Humax was in the 15 Mins. Acurate Recording before recording cycle so everthing was as it should be. The point being that the Humax recovered from power loss the the middle of an AR recording cycle and carried on to record correctly
