Changing PDC Data
You can program new PDC data sets 1 to 4. You should have specific knowledge of the
relationships and construction of PDC data and Teletext Data Packet 8/30 format 2. The
instrument does not check the consistency and correctness of allowed PDC data input.
The size of the numerical values for the various parameters is limited by the number of
bits provided for this in the PDC code, so that random numbers cannot be entered. The
maximum PDC data input values respectively bits are shown in Figure 5-19 in the
Data Set 1.
Furthermore you can change the text of the PDC Program Titles for data sets 1 to 4.
The displayed PDC data, date, and time on Teletext Page 300, are identical to the con-
tents of the PDC data sets 1 to 9 if the instrument is set to the
Teletext B FLOF1
or
Teletext FLOF 2
mode. When you have programmed the PDC data sets 1 to 4, the timer
data, date, and time are automatically changed.
An example of user programmed PDC data (data set 1) is shown in Figures 5-19
and 5-20.
