With the A/B switch set to the converter position, you have remote control of all cable channels, except premium cable channels.

When you want to view premium channels, set the A/B switch to the position for CATV. Then follow the instructions in the VCR’s owner’s manual to set the channel switches on the VCR and CATV box.
