Setting Up Your VCR

4You will see the menu for sources connected to theVCR. Using the list below as a reference, press the ADJUST buttons to select the kind of antenna you connected.

•Cable if you have standard cable service without a cable box, use a cable box with an A/B switch, or your cable box is not remote controllable.

•Cable box only if you use a standard cable box.

•Digital cable box only if you use a digital cable box.

•Indoor/outdoor ant. if you use rabbit ears type or roof mounted type antennas.

After you have selected, press ENTER.

If you choose Cable or Indoor/outdoor ant.

An on-screen message and the front panel display of your VCR will show you that the VCR is memorizing the stations you can receive. After theVCR has memorized all the channels, the screen will return the VCR’s picture.

If you choose Cable box only or Digital cable box only

You need to tell theVCR which manufacturer makes your cable box or digital cable box, and on which channel the cable box or digital cable box sends a signal.

5Brand code will be highlighted. Press the ADJUST buttons or the number buttons to select the manufacturer’s code number for your cable box or digital cable box. The codes are listed on the next page.

6 To determine if the Brand code is correct, press CHANNEL on the remote. ￿ The channel number on the front panel display should change. Then your cable box or digital cable box should change to the exact same number a moment after it appears on your VCR.

If your cable box or digital cable box does not change channels at all, or does not show the exact same number, try the next Brand code, if another is listed for your type of cable box or digital cable box. Also make sure the IR emitter bulb faces the IR window on the cable box.

If no code number is listed for your cable box, or if none of the listed numbers work, try each code from 1 to 94. (For digital cable box, code numbers 3 to 5 are not functional.)

If your cable box or digital cable box cannot be operated by a remote control (if it has a mechanical dial or slide), then your VCR will not be able to change channels on the cable box.

If your cable box will not respond to any of the codes, your VCR cannot change channels on the cable box. You will need to change channels yourself, using the cable box’s remote control. You should re-program your VCR, choosing Cable in step 4. When programming to record, you will need to leave your cable box ON and tuned to the channel you wish to record.

7When the Brand code is correct, press ENTER. The screen will add a Channel selection.

8Use the ADJUST buttons to select the channel on which your cable box or digital cable box sends a signal to theVCR (normally channel 3 or 4). If you connected your cable box or digital cable box with audio/video cables, use

INPUT to select L1 (if you used the rear panel jacks), or L2 (if you used the

￿

front panel jacks). You cannot use both digital cable box and satellite receiver.

 

Thus if you selected Digital cable box only in step 4, you cannot select L2.
