How VCR Plus+ works
Whenever you want to record a TV program, all you need to do is look up
the program’s “PlusCode,” a number assigned to each program published
in the TV section of most newspapers, cable TV listings, and even TV
GUIDE magazine. Then, just enter the Plus Code of the program you want
and the VCR is automatically programmed to record that show. It’s that
simple. You can preset up to six programs within a one month time frame.
To take advantage of this function, you must first set up your Video/TV
and assign channel positions to the various guide channels. For details,
see “Setting Up VCR Plus+” on page 16.
Before you begin
•
Make sure that the time and date are set correctly. If not, refer to “Setting
the Clock” on page 12.
•
Make sure that the loaded cassette has its safety tab intact.
1
Press VCR plus.
The VCR Plus+ menu appears.
2
Press the 0-9 buttons to enter the desired program’s PlusCode.
3
Press TAPE SPEED repeatedly to select SP, EP, or AT (automatic tape
speed) and press SELECT. AT will automatically adjust the tape speed
between SP and EP so that the program you selected fits in the tape. (Note
that recording may stop if the tape is not long enough to record the
program in EP mode.)
The recording information (date, start and stop times, channel number,
and tape speed) appears in green.
Check that the information is correct. If it is not, press RESET to cancel the
setting.
4
Repeat steps 2 to 3 to preset another timer setting.
5
Press POWER to turn the Video/TV off.
The TIMER REC lamp on the front of the Video/TV lights up and the
Video/TV enters recording standby mode.
If you have made a mistake
entering program‘s PlusCode
Press RESET and re-enter the correct
number.
To check the timer setting
Press TIMER ON SCREEN. You can
check the list of the timer settings.
The timer will not accept a
setting in the following cases:
• When you enter the PlusCode of a
program that has already ended.
• When you enter the PlusCode of a
program that has already been set
to record.
• If the 6 programs have already
been preset, “6 programs have
already been set” appears on the
screen.
