Eurovox Scart Settings

[IDMA]

I have a euro-vox model dvb-xc with s/w 1.0 SSC4 Feb08 2006 and trying to record using L3 TO A SONY RDR-HXD560 DVD recorder. I have tried with RGB
setting on L3 @ the dvd end, and tried both RGB and cvbs @ the eurovox o/p
on L3. Problem is I can setup the timer for vcr_record,to set the start and end times plus channel to record all ok. Now when the timer starts the eurovox
springs into life, displays the channel that is progd to record but the dvd
recorder does not start recording. the signal across the scart lead does not seem to being sent from the eurovox. the sony dvd recdr is setup with the
SYNCHR-REC switched on as per the dvd manual. Am I doing something wrong
or is this eurovox model not capable of sending this signal?? I have proved
the connections ok as I can record manually and view at the same time with the L3 switched on plus the tv. Recording is perfect to the hdd in the sony
and replay perfect also...Help please
