Control

Suggested Location

Place the cable box on top of the VCR. Attach the VCR's Controller to the top of the VCR with the Controller’s transmitter pointed towards the cable box’s remote sensor.

Attention:

The Controller can also control a DBS receiver. If both a cable box and a DBS receiver are used, position the controller so its signal reaches the remote control sensors of both the cable box and DBS receiver.

BOX

This procedure is required if you receive your TV channels through a cable box (descrambler). The Controller allows the VCR to automatically switch the cable box channel during timer-recording. The Controller is effective for recording shows that have been programmed using VCR Plus+ (pg. 36) or Express Timer Programming (pg. 40).

CONNECT CABLE BOX TO VCR

3 The connection method depends on the type of cable box you have.

If your cable box has AUDIO and VIDEO OUT connectors . . .

. . . connect them to the AUDIO and VIDEO IN connectors on your VCR. Set the VCR to channel "L-1" for the rear AUDIO and VIDEO IN connectors, or channel "F-1" for the front AUDIO and VIDEO IN connectors to use the cable box.

If your cable box doesn’t have AUDIO and VIDEO OUT connectors . . .

. . . connect the antenna output connector on the cable box to the ANT. IN connector on the rear of your VCR. Set the VCR tuner to the same channel as the cable box RF output (see page 17 also).

NOTE:

When connecting your cable box refer to its instruction manual.

About Your Cable Box

This VCR has two separate methods to control your Cable Box.

The VCR's Wireless Remote Control Unit can control your Cable Box.

This eliminates the need for a separate Cable Box Remote Control Unit.

The VCR's Controller can also control your Cable Box.

This allows the VCR to change your Cable Box's channel number during timer recording.

Each method must be set up separately. To set up the VCR's Remote Control unit, refer to page 49. To set up the Controller go to page 17.
