6. Look at your cable box. If it is still on and changed to channel 09,
the test was successful. Highlight Yes, and press OK.
If the cable box did not change to channel 9, highlight No. If you
select No, the system will try another code.
If the GUIDE Plus+ system cannot recognize your cable box after
several tries, a screen stating “Cable Box (VCR) test failed...Please
consult your manual and try again” appears. You have a choice to
either Try Again or Skip Cable Box Setup. If you get this message,
you should also:
• Double check the brand of your cable box, and try entering it
again.
• Check to make sure the G-LINK cable wand is positioned
correctly.
If you choose to skip the cable box or VCR setup some features of
the guide may not be available until you successfully complete this
procedure.
7. Highlight the channel to which you have to tune your TV in order to
see cable programming, and press OK (a screen appears reminding
you to connect your G-LINK cable to your TV and cable box).
Notes:
• Channel 03 is the most common.
• Choose Video1/AUX if your cable box is connected to your TV
with audio/video cables instead of a coaxial cable. Go to page
13 for pictures of these cables.
Tips
If you’re not sure which channel is the cable
box’s output channel, consult the owner’s
manual that came with your cable box or
contact your cable company.
Leave your cable box turned ON to receive
program information.
Leave your VCR turned OFF to record programs.
