The G-CODE timer programming system eliminates the need to input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the timer record function.

You have to set �GUIDE PROG� numbers, which are assigned to each station for purposes of G-CODE timer programming, for all the stations stored in your recorder�s memory to get proper results.
