“v” indicating VPS
function active
The time and date are retrieved from the DVB data transmitted by the transmitter. When changing from Summer to Winter time and vice versa, please adjust the “Time offset” in the “Installation” menu. For Central European Summer time = {+2 h}/ For Central European Winter time = {+1 h}
Please note that some “exotic” channels sometimes do not transmit the correct time. Check the date and time in the “Timer Programming” menu when programming.
You can also control the timer and the video recorder by way of VPS (Video Programme System). To do so, programme the timer as usual in the EPG “Automatic Timer Setting” function or directly in the “Manual Timer Setting” menu and
then press the ! button (yellow) on the selected timer line to activate the VPS function. A (v) is displayed. Make sure the correct VPS time is entered in the Start column. The VPS times can also be found in many listings magazines.
When you have imported the programme you want to record from the EPG into the timer you will automatically see the start time, usually corresponding to the VPS time, and the stop time. When the VPS function is active (v) the start and stop times serve as a window within which VPS will start the programme even if it is delayed for example. The timer record function remains active as long as the VPS information is being broadcast by the channel, meaning recording may also be automatically started at an earlier point - that is, within the preset time window, such as in the event of a knockout in the first round of a boxing match, or later - outside the window - such as when a football match goes into extra time.
If you programme the timer manually from the menu, do not forget also to enter the stop time, so as to set a VPS time window. If the programme you are recording is only short (e.g. 15 minutes) in duration, choose a stop time to preset an adequate time window (e.g. one to two hours). In this way you will be sure that the VPS time window will not be exceeded if there is a lengthy scheduling change.

Timer recording can be aborted
prematurely only with the = Stop key. After an abort “End” is displayed. The unit can then be operated as normal.
