Mitsubishi Electronics HS-U778 manual Setting UpYour VCR, Memorizing Channels Automatically

Setting UpYour VCR

Your VCR comes with Mitsubishi’s exclusive on-screen operating system. This system has been developed to simplify the operation of your VCR with clear, understandable language and design.

Before your VCR can receive television channels or you can program your VCR to record, you need to memorize all of the channels you can receive into your VCR and set the clock. Additionally, if you are using a satellite receiver, you need to do a first time setup to memorizing satellite brand code. Fortunately, your VCR makes this an easy process with our menu system.

When using the on-screen menus, use the ADJUST buttons to move the highlight bar up or down and to change the setting of selected features. Press the ENTER button to enter a selection or adjustment. Press the CANCEL button to cancel or clear a setting.

Memorizing Channels Automatically

Using this process, your VCR will automatically memorize all of the television stations available to you. You can later get rid of unwanted or unused stations.

You need to manually set the brand code for the a satellite receiver.

If your local cable company scrambles some or all stations, and/or requires you to use a cable box, then your ability to memorize channels would normally be limited. The cable box receives all of your channels, then sends only one to your TV and your VCR, usually on channel 3 or 4.

If you are required to use a cable box, you should choose Cable box only or Digital Cable box only option in step 4 on the next page and turn the cable box on. Your HS-U778 will use its Converter Box Control technology to change the channels on the cable box. Make sure you have properly placed the IR Emitter (see page 9).

If your cable box or cable system seems incompatible with your new VCR, call your cable company. They may be able to provide solutions to your problems.
