Weekly/Daily Recording

You can record programmes with one of the following weekly/daily timer settings.

For the HDD deck

When you select a mode other than ONCE, the space on the hard disk drive is saved for new recordings by overwriting previous recordings. To prevent loss of a needed recording, backup programmes you wish to save by dubbing them to DVD discs before overwriting previous recordings.

ONCE (One Time Recording)

In this mode a programme will not be automatically overwritten. WEEKLY (OVERWRITE) (Weekly Recording/Weekly Overwrite) When the set weekly programme is broadcast, the programme recorded last week is automatically deleted and overwritten by the new programme.

MON–SUN (FOR A WEEK)/ MON–SAT (FOR A WEEK)/ MON–FRI (FOR A WEEK) (Daily Recording/Weekly Overwrite)

PDC Recording

Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this system, special code signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals. These code signals control your unit and have precedence over the advertised times which you may have preset into the timer. This means that your unit will start and stop recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end — even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is changed from what has been advertised. PDC is currently available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC service in some areas. All channels intend to offer this service in due course. Check your TV programme listing guide for latest information. If the channel you intend to record does not offer a PDC service your unit will not start recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to “OFF” if PDC is not available on your selected channel. (See step 8 on page 46.)

NOTES:

●Make sure to press VPS/PDC# after completing timer programming procedure to activate the VPS/PDC recording function.

●When you use Manual Timer Programming, set the start time (PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time than advertised will result in no recording.

●PDC recording is also possible when a satellite receiver or a cable system is connected to L-2 IN/DECODER connector on your unit.

●PDC recording is also possible via the L-1 IN/OUT connector.
