Remote A/B Code Switching
The remote control is capable of controlling two JVC video
recorders independently; one set to respond to the remote
control’s A code control signals and another set to respond to B
code control signals. The remote control is preset to send A
code signals because your video recorder is initially set to
respond to A code signals. You can easily modify your video
recorder to respond to B code signals.
