7. Programming a recording (TIMER)

General information

Use a TIMER programming to automatically start and stop a recording at a later time or date. The TV-Video Combi will switch to the right pro- gramme number and begin recording at the cor- rect time. With this TV-Video Combi, you can pre- programme up to eight recordings within a peri- od of one year. To make a programmed record- ing, your TV-Video Combi 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 con- trol the start and duration of TV channel record- ings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than scheduled, the TV-Video Combi 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 as 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.

Programming a recording with 'VIDEO Plus+ system®'
