VIDEO Plus+ Codes for Satellite Receivers/Cable TV
This VCR is not designed to control (switch on or change channel) your satellite receiver or Cable TV box, however, it can be
taught to recognise VIDEO Plus+ Codes for Satellite stations. The Satellite receiver or Cable TV box must be switched on and the
correct station selected. Some receivers have their own timer facility for this purpose. Please refer to your Satellite Receiver/
Cable TV box instructions for use of such timer facilities.
For your VCR to recognise the VIDEO Plus+ Codes for each satellite station, you must teach your VCR which channel or AV
input to record from for the first time. Otherwise when setting a VIDEO Plus+ recording, the [
ss
] symbol will appear in the
channel position indicating that the VCR does not know which channel position to set. Once you have set the channel/AV input
once the VCR will remember it whenever you use a VIDEO Plus+ Code for the station again.
