'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.
