RECORDING
Cable Box Control
This VCR needs to be connected to a cable
box equipped with an infrared wireless
remote control. You can select cable
channels from the cable box by operating
this VCR.
It is also possible to automatically change
the cable channels according to your
program setting in the timer program
recording or VCR Plus+ C
3 ®
system recording.
Placing the Cable Box
Put the cable box on the top of the VCR as
shown below. Do not block the sensor
window.
The infrared signals come out of the sensor
window and the front of the VCR. Then they
bounce off walls and other objects in the
room and are received by the cable box.
The VCR sends out infrared signals to your
cable box even during timer program
recording or VCR Plus+ C
3 ®
system
recording.
Notes
• If the channels cannot be controlled properly
because the infrared signal fails to reach the cable
box, change the position of the box on the VCR so
that it can receive the signal.
• Keep the cable box turned on even while the VCR
is in the timer program recording or VCR Plus+ C
3 ®
system recording.
