Controlling a VCR

The VCR’s remote controls two compatible RCA VCRs with the VCR1 and VCR2 buttons. Most RCA VCRs automatically respond to VCR1 without being programmed. If you own two RCA VCRs, test them to see if VCR1 turns on both VCRs. If it does, then program the REMOTE CONT feature on this VCR to respond to VCR2 if you want to control VCRs separately.

Helpful Hint: Notice the difference

between the TV and VCR on-screen

displays. This is one way to tell if the remote is set to control the VCR or the TV,

Program the VCR for remote control

Set the REMOTE CONT feature of the VCR to the VCR1 or VCR2 position. The remote then controls the VCR with either the VCR1 or VCR2 button - whichever position you select in the menu.

A.Press PROGNCR+.

B.Press 5 to select SET UP VCR.

C.Press 8 to select either the VCR1 or VCR2 position.

D.Press VCR1 or VCR2 to match the selection you made in step C.
