'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC'
(Programme Delivery Control)
With 'VPS/PDC', 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 earliei
or finishes later than expected.
Usually the start time is the same as the 'VPS/PDC' time. If,
however, a different 'VPS/PDC' time is given, e.g.: '20.15
(VPS/PDC 20.14)', you have to enter '20.14' (the 'VPS/PDC'
time) exactly to the minute.
If you are not using 'VPS/PDC', the 'VPS/PDC' indication must
be off.
