5. Now you're ready to assign your local channels to VCR Plus+ channels
in the VCR's memory. The way you do this depends on how your VCR is
hooked up to the incoming RF signal. Decide which hookup you have from
the diagrams below, and follow the setup instructions for your type of
hookup.
Hint
: Try several practice recordings after doing your channel setup. You
should get the same channels as you usually watch at home.
Home antenna or Cable (no cable box)
Cable with a cable box
Cable with a cable box and splitter
Home Antenna
If your VCR is connected directly to your home antenna, chances are you
don't have to do any special channel setup. To find out, compare the VCR
Plus+ channels in your TV program guide to your list of channels that you
receive at home.
If any channel numbers don't match, follow the steps (page 43) 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.
