What is “VPS/PDC”?
“VPS” (Video Programming System)/ “PDC” (Programme Delivery
Control) are used to control the start and duration of TV channel
recordings.If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than
scheduled,the DVD/ VCR 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 as 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.
