Setting up the G-CODE system for satellite
broadcasts (if applicable)
When your satellite tuner is connected via the AERIAL IN connector, first
you have to set the programme position for each satellite channel using the
TUNER PRESET menu. Then set the guide channel number for each satellite
channel using the SET UP CH AND G-CODE menu.
If your satellite tuner is connected via the LINE-1 IN jacks, you do not have
to set programme positions nor guide channel numbers for satellite
channels. Skip the following operations.

watching a satellite channel.

receiving all satellite broadcasts from
the satellite tuner.

Press PROG +/– to select another programme position for another
satellite channel, and press the programme number buttons to enter the
same channel number as the one displayed in step 4.
Repeat this step for all satellite channels.

the satellite channel by following the procedures on page 25.
Notes
• The G-CODE system used in this VCR is for Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong,
Macau, etc. and cannot be used in areas such as U.S.A, Canada, Japan, Korea,
Taiwan and U.K.
• The menu disappears automatically if you do not proceed for more than a few
minutes.
• If you inadvertently entered a guide channel number, press
M

m
repeatedly to reset
the “GUIDE CH” column to “---.” “---” appears between 1 and 255.
• The VCR does not allow you to enter the guide channel number if the same number
has been set.
• If you use a satellite tuner connected via the LINE-1 IN jacks, you do not have to set
up the G-CODE guide channels. Just record a satellite programme using the
G-CODE number, and the VCR automatically records the programme from the
LINE-1 IN jacks.
• When you record a satellite broadcast using the G-CODE number, you need to
select the desired channel on the satellite tuner manually.
