Remote A/B Code Switching

The remote control is capable of controlling two JVC video recorders independently; one set to respond to the remote control’s A code control signals and another set to respond to B code control signals. The remote control is preset to send A code signals because your video recorder is initially set to respond to A code signals. You can easily modify your video recorder to respond to B code signals.

REMOVE POWER SUPPLY

 

Unplug the mains power cord from the mains outlet.

2

TURN THE RECORDER ON

will now only respond to B code signals.

 

 

 

NOTE:

Some TV sets may malfunction in response to the B mode. If this happens, switch back to the A mode.
