NOTES:

The Controller may not work with all types of DBS receiver.

If your DBS receiver does not respond to the code, you cannot use the Controller to change satellite channels. In this case, make sure to leave the DBS receiver turned on and tuned to the proper channel before the scheduled start time of timer recording. In addition, if your DBS receiver is equipped with a timer, you can also use “Satellite Auto Recording” ( pg. 61).

The VCR can only change the satellite channel through the Controller during timer recording.

If your DBS receiver cannot be operated with a remote control (because it has no remote sensor), you cannot use the Controller to change its channels. Make sure to leave the DBS receiver turned on and tuned to the proper channel before the scheduled start time of timer recording.

For customers in U.S.A.: If you are unable to set the Controller, contact JVC toll free at 1-800-252-5722.
