and up to two compatible VCRs, including most models of most other brands.

To program the remote, press and hold VCR1 (or VCR2oLD) and the two-digit code number for your brand of VCR.

Note About Controlling Two VCRs

This remote can control two VCRs independently as long as each VCR operates on a different remote transmitting code.

Some newer VCRs are capable of working on either of two remote codes. These VCRs have either a switch labeled VCR1/VCR2 or

an on-screen display tiffed REMOTE VCR1/VCR2. You can then set your new VC.R to respond to the remote's VCR2*LD button and your older VCR to respond to the VCR1 button.

Some older VCRs have a NORM/UNIFIED

switch that can also respond to either the VCR1 or VCR2.LD button on the remote.

Place this switch in the UNIFIED position fox the VCR to respond to the VCR1 button or in the NORM position for the VCR2.LD button. In the NORM position; you must

program the VCR2*LD button to respond to code number 05.

If neither of your VCRs have switchable

code capabilities, you still may be able to use the VCR1/VCR2 feature to control two

VCRs of the same brand since many older VCRs use remote codes that are different

than newer VCRs. You may want to experiment to see what works with your p_u'ticular VCRs:
