Programming a Recording (TIMER)
General information
Use a TIMER programming to automatically start and stop a recording at a later time or date.The DVD/VCR will switch to the right programme number and begin recording at the cor- rect time.With this DVD/VCR, you can pre-programme up to eight recordings within a period of one year.To make a pro- grammed recording, your DVD/VCR needs to know:
* the date you want to make the recording * the programme number of the TV channel * the start and stop time of the recording * VPS or PDC on or off
This information is saved in a TIMER block.
What is 'VPS/PDC'?
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC' (Programme Delivery Control) are used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than scheduled, the DVD/VCR will turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
Usually the VPS or PDC time is the same than the start time. But if your TV guide shows a VPS or PDC time which is different from the programme’s scheduled start time, e.g. 20.10 (VPS/PDC 20.14), you must enter the VPS/PDC time exact to the minute. If you want a start time different from the VPS/PDC time, you must switch VPS/PDC off.
