Programme a recording

The set needs the following information for every pro-
grammed recording:

* the date on which the recording is to be made
* the programme number for the TV channel
* the start and end time of the recording
* VPS on or off

The set stores all the information mentioned above in what is
known as a TIMER block. It can store 6 TIMER blocks for up
to one month in advance.

’VPS’ (Video Programming System)

With VPS, the TV station controls the start and the duration
of a programmed recording. This means that the video
recorder switches itself on and off at the right time even if a
TV programme you have programmed begins earlier or
finishes later than expected.
Usually the start time is the same as the VPS time. If,
however, a different VPS time code is given, e.g.: ’20.15 (VPS
20.14)’, you have to enter ’20.14’ (the VPS time) exactly to the
minute.
If you are not using VPS, the ’VPS’ indication must be off.
