Timer recording with VPS/PDC signals
Some broadcast systems transmit VPS (Video Programme System) or PDC
(Programme Delivery Control) signals with their TV programmes. These signals

starts, or broadcast interruptions (when the VPS or PDC indicator in the display
window is lit).
To use the VPS/PDC function, set VPS/PDC to ON in step 4 above. You can also use
the VPS/PDC function for a source connected to one or more of the LINE inputs.
