Timer recording with VPS/PDC signals
Some broadcast systems transmit VPS (Video Programme System) or PDC
(Programme Delivery Control) signals with their TV programmes. These
signals ensure that your timer recordings are made regardless of broadcast
delays, early starts, or broadcast interruptions (with the VPS or PDC
indicator in the display window lit).
To use the VPS/PDC function, set VPS/PDC to ON in step 4 above. You can
also use the VPS/PDC function for a source connected to the LINE-1 (TV)
connector, the LINE-2 IN jacks, and the LINE-3 (Scart) connector.
To record satellite broadcasts
If you connect the satellite tuner and the VCR, you can record satellite
programmes.
1
Turn on the satellite tuner.
2
On the satellite tuner, select the satellite programme for which you
want to make a timer setting.
3
Keep the satellite tuner turned on until the VCR finishes recording the
satellite programme for which you have made a timer setting.
To use the VCR after setting the timer
To use the VCR before a timer recording begins, just press I/u. The
indicator turns off and the VCR switches on. Remember to press I/u to reset
the VCR after using the VCR.
You can also do the following tasks while the VCR is recording:
• Reset the counter.
• Display tape information on the TV screen.
