INITIAL SETTING (cont.)
Cable Box
Control Setting
Suggested location
Place the cable box on top of the VCR. Attach the VCR’s
Controller to the top of the VCR with the Controller’s
transmitter pointed towards the cable box’s remote
sensor.
The following procedure is required if you receive your
TV channels through a cable box (descrambler). The
Controller allows the VCR to automatically switch the
cable box channel during timer recording. The Controller
is effective for recording broadcasts that have been
programmed using VCR Plus+ (A page 40) or Express
timer programming (A page 44).
Installing Controller
A Situate Controller
Place the Controller so that its transmitter is facing
the cable box’s remote sensor.
•Make sure the path between the Controller and
the cable box’s remote sensor is not blocked.
B Attach Controller
Fix securely using the adhesive strip attached on
the back of the Controller.
C Connect cable box to VCR
•If your cable box does not have audio/video
output connectors
Connect the RF output terminal on the cable
box to the [ANTENNA IN] terminal on the rear
of the VCR.
•If your cable box has audio/video output
connectors
Connect an audio/video cable between the
[AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT] connectors on the rear
of the VCR and the audio/video output
connectors on the cable box.
NOTE:
When connecting your cable box, refer to its instruction
manual.
D Connect Controller to VCR
Connect the Controller to the CABLE BOX
Controller connector on the rear panel.
ATTENTION:
The Controller can also control a DBS receiver. If both a
cable box and a DBS receiver are used, position the
Controller so its signal reaches the remote sensors on both
the cable box and DBS receiver.

How to control the cable box
This VCR has two separate methods to control your
cable box.
•The VCR’s wireless Remote can control your cable
box. This eliminates the need for a separate cable
box’s Remote.
•The VCR’s Controller can also control your cable
box. This allows the VCR to change your cable
box’s channel number during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the
VCR’s Remote, refer to page 77. To set up the
Controller, go to page 23.
