The G-CODE timer programming system eliminates the need to
input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the
timer record function. Simply key in the G-CODE number for the
TV program you wish to record (found in most TV listings) and
the VCR’s timer is automatically programmed.
Depending on the TV or cable stations that you receive and the
channel numbers that they are received on in your area, you may
have to make certain changes in your VCR’s “Guide Channel Set”
menu to get proper results. Please read the following information
carefully to find out which tasks you need to perform.
Before G-C
ODE setup you must have performed the following
procedures:
Plug & Play ( pg. 5)
Clock setting ( pg. 7) and Tuner setting ( pg. 10)
Cable box setting if you receive your TV channels through a
cable box ( pg. 13)
Channel Number Matching
Most TV listings have a chart indicating the “Guide Channel”
number assigned to each station for purposes of G-CODE
programming. Check the chart in your TV listings and see if the
Guide Channel numbers listed for the stations you receive are
the same as the channel number on which each is received by
your VCR or cable box.
**SPECIAL NOTES FOR CABLE SUBSCRIBERS**
In many instances, cable TV stations have G-CODE Guide
Channel numbers that DO NOT match the number of the
channel on which you receive the station. Check your TV
listings, or contact your cable supplier for details.
Many normal broadcast TV stations can be viewed on cable.
Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for
details.
If the numbers match, go directly to “G-C
ODE Timer
Programming” ( pg. 40).
If the numbers are different, and you want to be able to timer
record programs from those stations, you have to inform the
VCR of the mismatch. Go to step 1. If you will not want to timer
record from those stations, you can go directly to “G-C
ODE
Timer Programming” ( pg. 40).
