DVD: SP, LP, EP, XP, or AT (Auto)

AT (Auto) mode determines how much time is
available on the disc or tape and switches record
mode, if necessary, to complete recording the
program.
AT
mode cannot be selected when
VPS/PDC is ON.
• VPS/PDC – The VPS/PDC system automatically
adjusts the recording time so that even if a pro-
gram is not running to schedule, you won’t miss
it. For VPS/PDC to work properly, you must input
the correct announced time and date of the pro-
gram you want to record.
Note that VPS/PDC may not work with every sta-
tion.
otes
• Stations that use VPS/PDC typically include
VPS/PDC information in the teletext TV guide
pages. Please refer to these pages when set-
ting a timer recording.
• This recorder takes approximately 20 seconds
to switch on and start recording. This means
that when using VPS/PDC, there may be
instances where the beginning of the program
is not recorded.
