General information

*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 sched- uled, the System 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.
