incorrect information and will need to re-enter the

If the timer program list and “PROGRAM FULL” appear on

Video Program System (VPS)
The Video Program System (VPS) ensures that the
TV program that you have programmed for timer
recording will be recorded exactly from their
beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time
differs from the scheduled time due to delayed start,
or if the program is extended beyond its scheduled
time. Also, if a program is interrupted, for example, if
a news flash is inserted, the recording will also be
interrupted automatically and resumed when the
program continues.
The VPS signal is broadcast by the TV station and
this controls the timer in the unit.
VPS should be set ON for all timer recordings from
TV stations broadcasting these signals. It should be
set OFF for all timer recordings from TV stations that
are not broadcasting these signals.
*** The similar system PDC, which is used in the time
being in the Netherlands, can also be used with this
unit.
Notes
•
Do not set PDC/VPS to ON for a non-PDC/VPS channel.
• When the PDC/VPS signal drops out because the
broadcast signal is weak, or when a broadcasting station
does not transmit a regular PDC/VPS signal, the timer
recording will be performed in the normal mode (without
PDC/VPS) even if it was programmed for PDC/VPS.
