published in most TV guide magazines; they can vary
one to nine numbers in length.

stored in correct
SHOWVIEW order.

DVD+VCR.

ShowView Code of the TV programme that you
wish to record. If you make a mistake press

enter the revised number.

have entered the wrong ShowView number, entered
the ShowView number incorrectly.

programme number of the station, you want to
record from.

F or G to select the settings that you wish to
revise. (PR, DATE, TIME, VPS and SP).

Notes:
Video Programme System (VPS)
The Video Programme System (VPS) ensures that
the TV programmes that you have programmed for
timer recording will be recorded exactly from their
beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time
differs from the scheduled time due to delayed start,
or if the programme is extended beyond its scheduled
time. Also, if a programme is interrupted, for example,
if a news flash is inserted, the recording will also be
interrupted automatically and resumed when the pro-
gramme continues.
The VPS signal is broadcast by the TV station and
this controls the timer in the video recorder.
VPS should be set ON for all timer recordings from
TV stations broadcasting these signals. It should be
set OFF for all timer recordings from TV stations that
are not broadcasting these signals.
*** The similar system PDC, which is used in the time
being in the Netherlands, can also be used with your
new video recorder.
