IMPORTANT

If you have moved to a different area or if a broadcasting station’s channel number has been changed, the wrong VCR CH or CABLE CH number will be displayed on the Program screen ( step 5on page 31). When this happens, perform the following steps to set the correct guide channel number for that station.

To ensure that VCR Plus+ timer recording operates correctly, it is necessary to set the VCR Plus+ “Guide Channel Set” for each station. Read the following information carefully.

VCR Plus+ guide channel matching

The VCR Plus+ programing system assigns a VCR Plus+ guide channel to the TV channels and the cable channels. These guide channel numbers are also called the VCR Plus+ channel codes. Most TV listings have a section, usually a chart, indicating the guide channel numbers assigned to each station. For accurate VCR Plus+ programing, the VCR Plus+ guide channel number for each station should match the channel number on which it is received in your area.

The JVC HR-S5900U and HR-S5910U are part of JVC's renowned line of Super VHS (S-VHS) VCRs, known for their advanced recording capabilities and high-quality video output. These VCRs, popular in the late '90s, reflect JVC's commitment to preserving video fidelity during the transition from analog to digital formats.

One of the standout features of the HR-S5900U and HR-S5910U is their Super VHS technology, which delivers superior image resolution compared to standard VHS.

In terms of compatibility, these VCRs can play both S-VHS and regular VHS tapes, providing versatility for users with diverse video collections. The HR-S5910U goes a step further by offering three playback modes, allowing users to adjust playback quality to suit their preferences or the quality of the original tape.

Another notable feature is the on-screen programming capability, simplifying the process of scheduling recordings. Users can easily set timers and select specific channels, making it a user-friendly experience for even those less familiar with high-tech devices. The inclusion of a variety of audio outputs, including stereo sound, ensures that users can enjoy enhanced audio quality to complement the superior video performance.

JVC's HR-S5900U and HR-S5910U also support various recording speeds, including SP and EP modes, allowing users to extend recording time without sacrificing much quality. Furthermore, both models exhibit robust build quality, a hallmark of JVC's design philosophy, ensuring they can withstand regular use while delivering reliable performance.

In summary, the JVC HR-S5900U and HR-S5910U are key players in the world of home video, combining advanced technology with practical features for superior playback and recording quality.
