Weekly/Daily Recording

VPS/PDC 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. Or save the title of weekly/ daily programmes to avoid overwriting of a previous week/day. (A pg. 48)

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. Save the title of each programme you wish to save, then the recorded programme is saved and will not be overwritten by the new programme.

Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery Control) and VPS (Video Programme System) are services 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 video unit and have precedence over the advertised times 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.

NOTES:

Make sure to press VPS/PDCj after completing timer programming procedure to activate the VPS/PDC recording function. The VPS/PDC recording indicator lights up on the front

display panel when VPS/PDC recording function is activated. However, it will blink rapidly when VPS/PDCj is pressed under the following conditions:

Clock is not set.

Timer programming has not been set.

Disc is not loaded.

HDD is full.

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

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

VPS/PDC recording is also possible via the [L-1 IN/OUT] connector.

When timer recording via VPS/PDC recording is in progress, it is not possible to switch between the HDD and DVD deck, and the following menus cannot be displayed:

Main Menu

Library Database Navigation Menu

Editing Menu

If the unit is powered on when set to record a timer programme onto HDD/DVD using VPS/PDC, the PDC information will not be used. The programme will be recorded using the start and stop times originally programmed.

How to check if the station being received transmits a VPS/ PDC signal

AHold down DISPLAY for about 5 seconds. AVPS/PDCB appears and blinks on the front display panel. If a VPS/PDC signal is detected from the station, AVPS/PDCB will stop blinking. If no VPS/PDC signal is detected from the station, AVPS/PDCB will blink at a slower rate.

BPress DISPLAY again to return to normal display.
