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 was scheduled,the
DVD recorder will then turn on and off at the correct time.

What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
- Usually the start time is the same as the VPS or PDC time. If a
different 'VPS/PDC time' is indicated,e.g.: '20.15 (VPS/PDC 20.14)',
the VPS/PDC time '20.14' must be entered exactly to the minute
during programming.
If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS or PDC
time,you must switch off VPS or PDC.
the VPS/PDC time '20.14' must be entered exactly to the minute
during programming.
If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS or PDC
time,you must switch off VPS or PDC.
- Only one TV program of a TV channel can be controlled using
'VPS/PDC' at a time. If you want to record two or more TV
programmes on a TV channel using 'VPS/PDC',you will need to
programme these as two separate recordings.

- Since the DVD recorder requires a certain 'lead time' (for getting the
disc up to speed and positioning the laser) before recording can start,it
is possible that the recorder will miss the first few seconds of a TV
show recorded with VPS/PDC.
In this case,disable VPS/PDC and enter a start time one minute
earlier.
