PDC (Programme Delivery 
Control)
The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) assures that 
the TV programmes you have programmed for timer 
recording are recorded exactly from beginning to end, 
even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the 
scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of 
the programme duration. Furthermore, if a 
programme is interrupted, the recording will also be 
interrupted automatically and resumed when the 
programme starts again.
If the PDC signal drops out because the broadcast 
signal is weak, or if a broadcasting station does not 
transmit a regular PDC signal, the timer recording is 
performed in normal mode (without PDC) even if it 
was programmed for PDC. If the starting time of the 
PDC timer recording is between 0:00 and 3:59 on a 
given day, the PDC function will operate from 20:00 
on the previous day to 4:00 on the given day. If the 
starting time of the PDC timer recording is between 
4:00 and 23:59 on a given day, the PDC function will 
operate from 0:00 on the day to 4:00 on the given day. 
This means that if the relevant programme is 
broadcasted within this period, it is recorded correctly. 
If the timer is not programmed correctly, the incorrect 
timer setting stays in effect unless you cancel it. To 
cancel an incorrect timer setting, refer to “Checking, 
cancelling, or correcting the timer programming 
information” on page 29.
Hints for timer recording
• If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for 
more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all 
timer settings will be lost.
• If there is no disc or an unrecordable disc in the tray, 
the DVD indicator will flash and timer recording will 
not occur. Insert a recordable disc.
• If there is no tape or a tape with a record tab is not in 
the cassette compartment, the VCR indicator on the 
front panel flashes and timer recording cannot be 
performed. Please insert a recordable tape.
• When all timer recordings are complete, the 
  
icon flashes. To play back or eject the recorded disc, 
press [T-SET], and then press [PLAY 
P] or 
[OPEN / CLOSE / EJECT 
O].
