Basic Operations (VCR Plus + Recording)

If any channel numbers don't match, follow the steps (page 39) to assign your local channel
numbers to VCR Plus+ numbers.

Cable (No Cable Box)
This is the channel setup to use if your VCR is hooked up directly to cable without a cable box.
Compare your local TV channel listing to your cable company's channel directory to find
channels that need to be assigned to the VCR Plus+ codes. For example:

In the example above none of the cable channels match, all of them need to be assigned to VCR
Plus+ channel codes.
