Note About Controlling Two VCRs
•This remote can control two VCRs independently as long as each VCR operates on a different remote transmitting code.
•Some newer VCRs are capable of working on either of two remote codes. These VCRs have
either a switch labeled VCR1/VCR2 or an on- screen display titled REMOTE VCR1/VCR2. You can then set your new VCR to respond to the remote's VCR 2 button and your older VCR to respond to the VCR 1 button.
•Some older VCRs have a NORM/UNIFIED
switch that can also respond to either the VCR I or VCR 2 button on the remote. Place
this switch in the UNIFIED position for the VCR to respond to the VCR 1 button or in the NORM position for the VCR 2 button. In the NORM position, you must program the
VCR 2 button to respond to code number 05.
•If neither of your VCRs have switchable code capabilities, you still may be able to use the VCR1/VCR2 feature to control two VCRs of
the same brand since many older VCRs use remote codes that are different than newer
VCRs. You may want to experiment to see what works with your particular VCRs.
o Refer to the chart below to find the code number that corresponds to the brand name of your VCR. Keep this number in mind. If more than one number is listed, you may need to try each one separately until you find the one that works.
°Press VCR 1 or VCR 2 button on remote (depending on which button you want to program for that VCR).
You can program each button to control a different VCR.
°Press SETUP button on remote.
4.Press two number buttons (first one, then the other) to enter the code
number for your brand of VCR. Note: You must press the two number buttons within three seconds of pressing the SETUP button.
o Point the remote at the VCR and
press the ON/OFF button to test the code number.
•If the right number was entered, the VCR should turn on.
•If the VCR does not react to the remote, repeat steps 1 thru 5 with
another code number.
Note: Some older VCRs do not have an ON/OFF switch on their remote controls and cannot be turned on and off remotely. If you have this type of VCR, you can test the code number by
pressing the CHAN button instead of the ON/OFF button. Make sure the
VCR is already turned on when you test the code number.
Operating Notes:
•After the remote is programmed, it will
turn on the VCR whenever you press VCR 1 (or VCR 2) and then ON/OFF.
•You'll be able to control the VCR whenever the remote is in the "VCR mode". To put the remote in the "VCR mode", press the VCR 1 or VCR 2 button (depending on which button you programmed). The other VCR buttons (such as REC, PLAY, REW, FF, STOP, and PAUSE) will control the VCR when the remote is in the "VCR mode".
•To turn off the VCR, press VCR 1 (or VCR 2), then ON/OFF.
•To change channels on the VCR, press
VCR 1 (or VCR 2), then CHANNEL up or down.
•You may need to reprogram the remote when you change the batteries. Try not
to press any buttons when changing batteries.
