G-Code Set Up
This section is for VR499/75 only.
You can simplify the programming
method of timer recording by using G-
Code. Whenever you want to record a
TV program, all you need to do is to
find out the programme’s G-Code
number.
You can easily find out this number by
checking the TV programme list of
your local newspaper or TV guide
magazine.
Simply entering the programme’s
G-Code using the remote control will
make the VCR record the programme.
Before using G-Code for the first time,
you need to set the guide channel
number for each local channel number.
The local channel (user channel*)
number is the number you select on
the VCR to record a programme, while
the guide channel number is the one
assigned to that local channel and you
can also find it in the TV programme
list of your local newspaper or TV
guide magazine.
Make sure...
• You can use the tables below to note
your user channel numbers and their
guide channel numbers.
