General information
Use a TIMER programming to automatically start
and stop a recording at a later time or date. The
video recorder will switch to the right programme
number and begin recording at the correct time.
With this video recorder, you can pre-programme
up to eight recordings within a period of one
year. To make a programmed recording, your
video recorder needs to know:
* the date you want to make the recording
* the programme number of the TV channel
* the start and stop time of the recording
* VPS or PDC on or off
This information is saved in a 'TIMER block
Programming a recording (with
'VIDEO Plus+® system')

longer need to tediously enter the date, pro-
gramme number, start and end time. All the
information needed for programming is con-
tained in the PlusCode number.
You can find this PlusCode number is most TV
listing magazines written next to the concerned
programme.

What is 'VPS/PDC'?
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC'
(Programme Delivery Control) are used to con-
trol the start and duration of TV channel record-
ings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends
later than scheduled, the video recorder will
turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
Usually the VPS or PDC time is the same than
the start time. But if your TV guide shows a
VPS or PDC time which is different from the
programme’s scheduled start time, e.g. 20.10
(VPS/PDC 20.14), you must enter the VPS/PDC
time exact to the minute. If you want a start time
different from the VPS/PDC time, you must
switch VPS/PDC off.
