INITIAL SETTINGS (cont.)
The VCR Plus+ timer programming system eliminates the need
to input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the
timer record function. Simply key in the PlusCode number for
the TV program you wish to record and the VCR's timer will be
automatically programmed. (The PlusCodes are the numbers
next to the programs in most TV listings.)
TV and cable stations can be received on different channel
numbers depending on the area where they are received.
Therefore to ensure that VCR Plus+Timer Recording operates
correctly it may be necessary to set the VCR Plus+ "Guide
Channel Set " for certain stations. Please read the following
information carefully to find out which tasks you need to
perform.
Before VCR Plus+ setup you must have performed the following
procedures:
●Plug & Play (Z pg. 8)

or

Clock setting (Z pg. 11) and Tuner setting (Z pg. 14)
●Cable box setting if you receive your TV channels through a
cable box (Z pg. 17)

VCR Plus+ Guide Channel Matching

VCR Plus+ assigns a VCR Plus+ "Guide Channel" to broadcast
and cable TV channels. These Guide Channel numbers are also
called the VCR Plus+ Channel Codes. Most TV listings have a
section, usually a chart, indicating the "Guide Channel" numbers
assigned to each station. For accurate VCR Plus+ Programming
the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel number for each station should
match the channel number on which it is received in your area.
If the numbers match, go directly to “VCR Plus+ Timer
Programming” (Z pg. 42).
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 “VCR Plus+
Timer Programming” (Z pg. 42).
NOTES:
●In many instances the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel numbers for
cable and broadcast TV stations DO NOT match the channel
number on which it is received by your VCR or cable box.
Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for
details.
●If the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel numbers do not match, the
wrong VCR/CABLE CH number will be displayed on the
Program Screen when you enter the PlusCode for VCR Plus+
Programming. If this occurs set the correct VCR Plus+ Guide
Channel to match this number.
●Many broadcast TV stations can be viewed on cable. Check
your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for details.
