Programming a recording (TIMER)
Use programmed recording (TIMER) to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date.
The DVD recorder will switch to the right program number and begin recording at the correct
time.
With this DVD recorder, you can pre-program up to 6 recordings within a period of one
month.
To make a programmed recording, your DVD recorder needs to know:
* the date you want to make the recording
* the program number of the TV channel
* the start and stop time of the recording
* VPS or PDC on or off
* the recording mode ('
/
This information is saved in a TIMER block.
'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, the DVD recorder will still switch
itself on and off at the correct times.
You must enter the start time
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 programme on 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.
Thanks to this programming system, you no longer need to tediously enter the date, programme
number, start and end time. All the information needed by the DVD recorder for programming
is contained in the PlusCode programming number. This 9-digit PlusCode number is found in
most TV listings magazine.
