The Controller allows the VCR to automatically switch the cable box channel during timer recording. The Controller is effective for recording broadcasts that have been programmed using VCR Plus+ ( pg. 30) or Express timer programing ( pg. 34).

NOTE:

The Controller is not supplied with this unit. It can be requested by mailing in the completed JVC Cable Mouse Certificate that is included with the accessory package.

How to control the cable box

This VCR has two separate methods to control your cable box.

●The VCR’s wireless Remote can control your cable box. This eliminates the need for a separate cable box’s Remote.

●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, refer to page 47. To set up the Controller, go to page 16.
