PDC stands for Programme Delivery Control system. A PDC signal is broadcast at the beginning and end of most
TV programmes. This lets your unit know if a TV programme is running early or late.
PDC is default OFF on this unit. If you switch PDC ON then a recording will not start until your unit receives the PDC
signal. Without PDC your recording would have started and ended as programmed time.
