DBS Receiver
Control Setting
Place the DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) receiver on top
of the VCR. Attach the VCR’s Controller to the top of the
VCR with the Controller’s transmitter pointed towards the
DBS receiver’s remote sensor.
ATTENTION:
The Controller can also control a cable box. If both a DBS
receiver and a cable box are used, position the Controller so its
signal reaches the remote sensors of both the DBS receiver and
cable box.
The following procedure is required if you receive
satellite channels through a DBS (Direct Broadcast
Satellite) receiver. The Controller allows the VCR to
automatically switch the DBS receiver’s channel during
timer recording.
NOTES:
●
The VCR can automatically change the DBS receiver channels
using the Controller when the VCR has been programed using
“Express Timer Programing” (
੬
pg. 46).
Because satellite programing does not use PlusCode, the
Controller cannot change the DBS receiver channels during
“VCR Plus+
®
Timer Programing” (
੬
pg. 42).
●
If a cable box is also used, it is recommended that you
connect the DBS receiver to your VCR’s audio/video input
connectors and the cable box to your VCR’s antenna input
terminal.
Installing Controller
A
Situate the Controller.
Place the Controller so that the path between its
transmitter and the DBS receiver’s remote sensor is
unobstructed.
B
Attach the Controller.
Fix securely using the adhesive strip attached on the back
of the Controller.
C
Make connections.
If your DBS receiver does not have audio/video output
connectors
Connect the RF output terminal on the DBS receiver to
the ANTENNA IN connector on the rear of your VCR.
If your DBS receiver has audio/video output connectors
Connect an audio/video cable between the AUDIO/
VIDEO IN connectors on the rear of the VCR and the
audio/video output connectors on the DBS receiver.
NOTE:
When connecting your DBS receiver, refer to its instruction
manual.

How to control the DBS receiver
This VCR has two separate methods to control your DBS
receiver.
●
The VCR’s wireless Remote can control your DBS receiver.
This eliminates the need for a separate DBS receiver’s
Remote.
●
The VCR’s Controller can also control your DBS receiver.
This allows the VCR to change your DBS receiver’s channel
number during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the VCR’s
Remote, refer to page 69. To set up the Controller, go to
page 24.
