6 To determine if the Brand code is correct, press CHANNEL on the remote. The channel number on the front panel display should change. Then your cable box or digital cable box should change to the exact same number a moment after it appears on your VCR.
If your cable box or digital cable box does not change channels at all, or does not show the exact same number, try the next Brand code, if another is listed for your type of cable box or digital cable box. Also make sure the IR emitter bulb faces the IR window on the cable box.
If no code number is listed for your cable box, or if none of the listed numbers work, try each code from 1 to 94. (For digital cable box, code numbers 3 to 5 are not functional.)
