Sensor window
The infrared signals come out of the sensor window and received by the DSS® satellite receiver. The VCR sends out infrared signals to your DSS® satellite receiver even during timer program recording.
Notes
•If the channels cannot be controlled properly because the infrared signal fails to reach the DSS® satellite receiver, change the position of the receiver on the VCR so that it can receive the signal.
•Keep the DSS® satellite receiver turned on even while the VCR is in the timer program recording.
