Setting up

G-CODE

G-CODE is a feature in Sony VCRs that simplifies programming the VCR to make timer recordings. To use G-CODE, each programme position needs to be matched with its G-CODE guide channel. To get the guide channel numbers, look in the programme guide for your area that features G-CODE numbers.

If you want to record satellite broadcasts using G-CODE, see page 20.

Before you start…

Turn on the VCR and the TV.

Set the TV to the video channel.
