Getting Started

Hookup 5: VCR setup

1Set the RF UNIT switch to CH 3 or CH 4, whichever
channel is not used in your area. If both are used,
set the switch to either channel.
If you made A/V connections (from page 12), you
can skip this step.
2Turn on your DSS receiver.
3Press EASY SET UP on the VCR.
The SET UP menu appears.
Automatic clock setting
If you connect an antenna or cable to the VCR, the Auto
Clock Set feature will function. It automatically sets
the clock and adjusts for Daylight Saving Time the first
time you turn off the VCR.
The VCR sets the clock by picking up a time signal
provided by some TV channels.
If you want to use the timer to record right away, or if
the channels in your area do not carry time signals, set
the clock manually. For details, see pages 2729.
Note
To use the automatic clock setting feature, leave the DSS
receiver on.
Depending on your area, the automatic clock setting feature
may not set the clock correctly. In this case, set the clock
manually according to the procedure on page 29.

You are now ready to use your VCR

Procedures differ slightly depending on the hookup
used. Make a note of which hookup you used
(Hookup 5) so that you can always follow the correct
instructions.
Notes
To successfully record a program from the DSS receiver,
proceed as follows:
Leave the DSS receiver on all the time.
Turn off the display (menu screen, channel number, etc.) of
the DSS receiver.
To record or receive locked channels, unlock the channel
before the VCR starts recording.
To set pay-per-view programs in the timer setting, order the
pay-per-view program before the VCR starts recording.
Some programs are copy protected. You cannot record these
programs.
