• If you set the timer recording to use VPS/PDC, you
must switch the recorder into standby before the
timer recording is due to start for it to work correctly.
For non-VPS/PDC timer recordings there is no need
to switch the recorder into standby.
Tip
• Stations that use VPS/PDC typically include VPS/
PDC information in the teletext TV guide pages.
Please refer to these when setting your timer
recording.
Timer recording using the VIDEO Plus+

programming system

This system makes programming timer recordings very
simple. Most TV guides publish PlusCode programming
numbers with their program details. If you want to make
a timer recording of a program, you just input the
corresponding code. The date, start, stop and channel
settings are made automatically. All you have to do is tell
the recorder the recording mode, and whether it's a
once-only recording or a regular recording.
