INITIAL SETTINGS (cont.)
Cable Box Control
Setting
Place the cable box on top of the VCR. Attach the VCR's
Controller to the top of the VCR with the Controller’s
transmitter pointed towards the cable box’s remote
sensor.
ATTENTION:
The Controller can also control a DBS receiver. If both a cable
box and a DBS receiver are used, position the Controller so its
signal reaches the remote sensors of both the cable box and DBS
receiver.
The following procedure is required if you receive your
TV channels through a cable box (descrambler). The
Controller allows the VCR to automatically switch the
cable box channel during timer recording. The Controller
is effective for recording broadcasts that have been
programed using “VCR Plus+
®
Timer Programing”
(
੬
pg. 42) or “Express Timer Programing” (
੬
pg. 46).
Installing Controller
A
Situate the Controller.
Place the Controller so that the path between its
transmitter and the cable box’s remote sensor is
unobstructed.
B
Attach the Controller.
Fix securely using the adhesive strip attached on the back
of the Controller.
C
Make connections.

connectors

How to control the cable box
This VCR has two separate methods to control your cable
box.
● The VCR’s wireless Remote can control your cable box.
This eliminates the need for a separate cable box’s Remote.
● The VCR’s Controller can also control your cable box. This
allows the VCR to change your cable box’s channel
number during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the VCR’s
Remote, refer to page 68. To set up the Controller, go to
page 21.
