Note
• If you have not set the clock, the clock setting window will
appear instead of the Timer Programming list. Continue
from "Clock Setting" on page 67 before programming the
timer.
• Use [0 1] to move the cursor to the left and the right in the
entry screen for the timer programming.
• If a basic recording or One-touch Timer Recording is in
progress on one component (e.g. VHS) and the timer
recording set for the other component (e.g. DVD) is about to
begin, the unit automatically switches to the programmed
channel for timer recording 2 minutes before the
programmed starting time, and the recording in progress (for
VHS) will be cancelled UNLESS their recording channels
are the same. If their recording channels are the same, the
timer recording will start without cancelling the recording
currently in progress. In this case, the recording of the same
channel will be made on both DVD and VHS.
• Cancel the timer-standby mode by pressing [TIMER SET] to
use the component currently in timer-standby mode. When
finished operating, press [TIMER SET] to resume the timer-
standby mode.
• In the timer-standby mode, you can turn on the power and
use the component (VHS or DVD) which is not currently
timer-programmed.
VPS (Video Programme System) / PDC
(Programme Delivery Control)
The Video Programme System (VPS) or Programme Delivery
Control (PDC) assures that the TV programmes you have
programmed for timer recording are recorded exactly from
beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time differs
from the scheduled time due to a delayed start or extension of
the programme duration. Furthermore, if a programme is
interrupted, the recording will also be interrupted
automatically and resumed when the programme starts again.
If the VPS/PDC signal drops out because the broadcast signal
is weak, or if a broadcasting station does not transmit a
regular VPS/PDC signal, the timer recording is performed in
normal mode (without VPS/PDC) even if it was programmed
for VPS/PDC. If the starting time of the VPS/PDC timer
recording is between 0:00 and 3:59 on a given day, the VPS/
PDC function will operate from 20:00 on the previous day to
4:00 on the next day. If the starting time of the VPS/PDC timer
recording is between 4:00 and 23:59 on a given day, the VPS/
PDC function will operate from 0:00 on the given day to 4:00
on the next day. This means that if the relevant programme is
broadcasted within this period, it is recorded correctly. If the
timer is not programmed correctly, the incorrect timer setting
stays in effect unless you cancel it. To cancel an incorrect
timer setting, refer to "Checking, Cancelling or Correcting the
Timer Programming Information" on page 35.

• This feature is only available for analogue channels.
