A-2 EXPLORER 2000 User’s Guide 565069 Rev B
How to Program the Remote Control, Continued
To Program for VCR Operation
You can program the EXPLORER 2000 remote control to play video tapes. If
you want the EXPLORER 2000 to manage the recording of events with your
VCR, you must use the VCR Commander
™
module. Without this module, you
must manually program your VCR to record. See the VCR Commander
™
User’s Guide for more information or ask your cable company.
Make sure your VCR is powered-on before you program the remote control.
1. Locate the VCR setup code in the tables on the pages that follow. If your
VCR is not listed, see Searching the Code Library.
2. Point the remote control away from the EXPLORER 2000, the TV,
and the VCR.
3. On your remote control, press and hold
and at the same time
until the LED on the remote blinks twice.
4. Using the remote control keypad, enter your VCR’s 3-digit setup code.
The LED on the remote control should blink twice. If not try another setup
code, if available.
5. Confirm by pointing the remote control toward the VCR and test the
Power, Play, and Stop functions. If these functions do not operate from
the remote control, enter the next VCR setup code in the list by repeating
this procedure from step 1.
Note: The slide switch must be in the VCR mode to test the remote control’s
VCR functions.
Note: The slide switch on the remote control must be in the VOD position in
order for the Record and Stop features of the VCR Commander to work
with the remote control.
