The G-CODEtimer programming system eliminates the need to input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the timer record function. Simply key in the G-CODEnumber for the TV program you wish to record (found in most TV listings) and the VCR’s timer is automatically programmed.

Depending on the TV or cable stations that you receive and the channel numbers that they are received on in your area, you may have to make certain changes in your VCR’s “Guide Channel Set” menu to get proper results. Please read the following information carefully to find out which tasks you need to perform.

Before G-CODEsetup you must have performed the following procedures:

Plug & Play (pg. 5)

Clock setting (pg. 7) and Tuner setting (pg. 10)

Cable box setting if you receive your TV channels through a cable box (pg. 13)

Channel Number Matching

Most TV listings have a chart indicating the “Guide Channel” number assigned to each station for purposes of G-CODEprogramming. Check the chart in your TV listings and see if the Guide Channel numbers listed for the stations you receive are the same as the channel number on which each is received by your VCR or cable box.

**SPECIAL NOTES FOR CABLE SUBSCRIBERS**

In many instances, cable TV stations have G-CODEGuide Channel numbers that DO NOT match the number of the channel on which you receive the station. Check your TV listings, or contact your cable supplier for details.

Many normal broadcast TV stations can be viewed on cable. Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for details.

If the numbers match, go directly to “G-CODETimer Programming” (pg. 40).

If the numbers are different, and you want to be able to timer record programs from those stations, you have to inform the VCR of the mismatch. Go to step 1. If you will not want to timer record from those stations, you can go directly to “G-CODETimer Programming” (pg. 40).
