Plug & Play

Auto Clock Set/Auto Tuner Set

The Plug & Play function sets the clock and tuner channels automatically when power is first connected to the VCR. The antenna cable must be connected for the Plug & Play function.

The time and date can be set automatically from clock setting data that is transmitted by one of the regular TV broadcast channels. We call this TV channel the “Host Channel” and it is a PBS channel in your area.

IMPORTANT

●Don’t press any buttons on the VCR or remote while Plug & Play is in progress.

●If you perform Plug & Play successfully, there’s no need to perform the Clock (☞ pg. 9) and Tuner (☞ pg. 12) procedures. If, however, you want to add or delete channels, refer to “Add Or Delete A Channel” on page 14.

ATTENTION CABLE BOX SUBSCRIBERS

To perform the Plug & Play procedure . . .

●Connect your cable box to your VCR with the RF cable.

●Select the PBS channel on your cable box before plugging your VCR's power plug into the AC outlet.( If Plug & Play is not successful you may have to select an alternative PBS channel if another is available in your area.)

●If there is no PBS channel in your area, or if Plug & Play is not successful, perform the Manual Clock Set procedure (☞ pg. 11).

●For automatic clock adjustment to take place the VCR's power must be off and the cable box must be set to the PBS channel at clock adjustment times.

●If you perform Plug & Play successfully, D.S.T. will be set to “AUTO”. At the D.S.T. adjustment time (☞ pg. 11), your VCR's power must be off and your cable box must be set to the host PBS channel in your area for the D.S.T. adjustment to take place. If the clock is not set correctly, change the D.S.T. setting to “ON” or “OFF. See step 9 of Semi-Auto procedure (☞ pg. 10) or step 6 of Manual procedure

(☞ pg. 11).

NOTE:

If the memory backup fails, because of a power outage or because the AC was removed from the VCR, Plug & Play will be performed when power is restored to the VCR.

PLUG & PLAY SETUP

Connect the antenna cable to the VCR (☞ pg. 6). Then connect the VCR’s power plug to an AC outlet. Do not power on the VCR. The clock and tuner channels will be set automatically.

NOTES:

●Auto clock set is performed first. The auto clock set function scans all the channels received by your VCR to find the Host Channel and then sets the clock. "Auto" blinks on the front display panel during Auto clock set.

●Auto channel set is performed next. The auto channel set function scans all the channels that are receivable by your VCR. It then automatically assigns each receivable channels to the CH▲▼ buttons. It skips non-receivable channels. During auto channel set the channel numbers are displayed as they are scanned and set.

●When Plug & Play has been completed successfully the correct time is displayed.

●If "AUTO CLOCK SET" or "SEMI-AUTO CLOCK SET" is selected at the Override Auto Clock Set screen on page 10, the clock will be adjusted automatically by the host channel every hour on the hour (except for 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) by the incoming PBS channel clock setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the VCR’s power is turned off. The clock will be adjusted on the hour based on the time displayed on the VCR, not on the actual real time.) The default setting is "AUTO CLOCK SET".

●If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform the Semi-Auto (☞ pg. 10) or Manual Clock Set (☞ pg. 11) procedure. Auto channel set has already taken place and it need not be set again.

●If “- -:- -” appears on the display, your antenna cable may not be connected to the VCR, there may not be a Host PBS signal available in your area, or your cable box may not be set to the PBS channel. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. If you use a cable

box ensure that your local PBS channel is selected on your cable box (☞ ATTENTION CABLE BOX SUB- SCRIBERS). Then power on and power off the VCR; the Plug & Play function will be automatically reactivated and "Auto" will be displayed on the VCR's front panel. If Plug & Play is not performed but everything is con-

nected and set correctly, perform the Manual Clock Set procedure (☞ pg. 11). Auto channel set has not yet

taken place, so please also perform the “Set Receivable Channels” procedure (☞ pg. 12).
