Setting Up the VCR Plus
®
System
Setting up your recorder involves coordinating the
TV channel number (the number you turn to on
your TV or recorder to watch a program) with the
guide channel (the number that’s assigned to that
channel in your TV program guide).
To find the guide channel numbers, look at the
“Channel Line-up Chart” in the program guide for
your area that features VCR PlusCode numbers.
Use the Channel Line-up Chart to coordinate the
guide channel number with the TV channel
number. For example, if HBO is listed in the
Channel Line-up Chart as channel 33, and the
recorder receives HBO on channel 5, coordinate
these numbers using the following procedure.
1
Press SYSTEM MENU while the recorder is
stopped.
2
Select “SETUP,” and press ENTER.
3
Select “Settings,” and press ENTER.
4
Select “Set VCR Plus+ Channels,” and
press ENTER.
5
Select “Guide CH – TV CH,” and press
ENTER.
6
Enter the guide channel number assigned
in the program guide using the number
buttons, and press SET.
7
Enter the TV channel number using the
number buttons, and press SET.
