Advanced Operations
This section explains how to use the VCR's remote control to operate your TV. It also
shows you how to hook up a cable box and how to connect a stereo or a second VCR
for a complete home entertainment system.
Controlling Your TV with the VCR's Remote
Compatibility
The remote control is designed to be compatible with many televisions, but will not work
with every one made. If your TV does not respond the way it should when you program
it as explained below, this remote may be incapable of operating it.
Once you have programmed the remote, you won't have to do it again until you change
the batteries.
This Hitachi remote control can be used with your TV as well as the VCR, as long as
your TV comes with a remote control. This feature comes in handy - you don't have to
juggle two remotes.
The remote control is compatible with the fifteen makers of TV's listed below - but don't
be alarmed if yours is not on our list. You may still be able to program the remote for
your TV.
Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain infrared signals.
You need to program the VCR's remote control to send signals that your TV will
recognize and respond to. Here's what to do:
Programming the Remote Control
Turn the television on (any channel is okay).
Aim the VCR's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the TV button
(not the VCR/TV button) while you press the number corresponding to your brand of
television as shown in the chart (page 70).
For example, if you have an RCA television, press TV and 0 at the same time. If this
button combination sends a signal that matches with your TV, the channel will change
on the TV, and you'll know the remote is set to control the television.
If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list
of button combinations one by one until you find the one that does change your TV
channel.
Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the number buttons. One of
them may work for you.
If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations
listed, it is likely that you will not be able to program this remote control for your TV.
