General information

Use a TIMER programming to automatically start
and stop a recording at a later time or date. The
TV-Video Combi will switch to the right pro-
gramme number and begin recording at the cor-
rect time. With this TV-Video Combi, you can
pre-programme up to eight recordings within a
period of one year. To make a programmed
recording, your TV-Video Combi 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
* PDC on or off
This information is saved in a ‘TIMER’ block.

What is ‘PDC’?

‘PDC’ (Programme Delivery Control) is used to
control the start and duration of TV channel
recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or
ends later than scheduled, the TV-Video Combi
will turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about ‘PDC’?
Usually the PDC time is the same as the start
time. But if your TV guide shows a PDC time
which is different from the programme’s sched-
uled start time, e.g. 20.10 (PDC 20.14), you
must enter the PDC time exactly to the minute.
If you want a start time different from the PDC
time, you must switch PDC off.
