Programming & Record/Playback Features
VCR Plus+™ Programming
Simplifies VCR programming by allowing you to simply enter PlusCode® programming numbers found in many published television listings. When recording begins, your VCR automatically selects the proper TV channel and program length. Back-up memory logic retains the cable channel guide map indefinitely even during a power failure or when the VCR is disconnected from its power source.
One-Touch Record
Record up to 8 hours or to the end of the tape with the touch of a sin- gle button. Each touch of the OTR button adds 30 minutes of additional recording time.
8-Event/1-Year Smart Programming
Program your VCR for unattended recording of up to 8 separate pro- grams over a full 365-day period. No manual setting, adjusting, or pro- gramming of the calendar function is required.
Remote Control Onscreen Menu Programming
Program by remote control for unattended recording, with programming instructions onscreen for visual verification. Onscreen menus lead you through normal, daily, or weekly programming by program number, channel to be recorded, start and stop times, speed, and date of record- ing by day, month, and year. Pressing the CLEAR button lets you go back and reprogram over mistakes, and pressing the MENU button at the end of programming verifies that instructions are locked into memory.

Convenience
SmartClock™
This menu-driven feature automatically maintains the correct time, regu- larly checking and updating the time if necessary. It also resets the clock after a power failure. The menu-driven time zone feature allows selection of appropriate time for those who live in a time zone other than that of their CATV service provider.
Daylight Savings Time Adjustment
This menu-driven feature automatically compensates for Daylight Savings Time changes in early April and late October so you don’t have to reset the clock twice a year. Simply activate the Daylight Savings Time option in the Set Clock menu and forget it!
Automatic Channel Setup
The VCR tuner scans through television frequencies, automatically storing active broadcast channel into memory. Then, only active channels pro- grammed into memory are tuned using the CHANNEL ▲ ▼ buttons on either the remote or front panel of the VCR. Automatic channel preset can be repeated whenever desired, should new channels become available. Channels can be manually added or deleted.
