Changing Remote Control Code

This Remote is capable of transmitting two control codes; one set to respond to A code control signals and another set to respond to B code control signals. This Remote control is preset to send A code signals because your VCR is initially set to respond to A code signals. You can easily modify your VCR and the Remote to respond to B code signals. When using two JVC VCRs, set two VCRs and their Remotes to different codes, so that you can operate these VCRs separately.

CChange code for VCR

●To set the Remote and the VCR back to A code control signals, repeat the same procedure as shown above except pressing the Number key “1” in step B of 1.

You can control two JVC VCRs by switching the remote control code for the Remote between A and B ( step A), keeping two VCRs to different control codes.
