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 (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 VCR Plus+ setup you must have performed the following
procedures:
Dual Quick setting (Z pg. 7)
or
Clock setting (Z pg. 8)
Tuner setting (Z pg. 12)
Tuner and cable box setting if you receive your TV channels
through a cable box (Z pg. 15)
Channel Number Matching
Most TV listings have a chart indicating the “Guide Channel”
number assigned to each station for purposes of VCR Plus+
programming. 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 VCR Plus+ Guide
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 “VCR Plus+ Timer
Programming” (Z pg. 34).
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 timer recording on those
stations is not important to you, you can go directly to “VCR
Plus+ Timer Programming” (Z pg. 34).
