Setting up the cable box control (Skip this section if you are using Hookup 2, 3, 4, or 6.) Your VCR includes a cable box control feature that allows the VCR to control most brands of cable boxes/DIRECTV digital satellite receivers via the Cable Mouse. With the cable box control, the VCR controls channels on the cable box/ DIRECTV digital satellite receiver for timer recording. You can also use the VCR's remote commander to change channels on the cable box/DIRECTV digital satellite receiver whenever the cable box/DIRECTV digital satellite receiver is turned on even if the VCR is turned off. To use cable box control, you need to connect the Cable Mouse (pages 11 and 27) and set the code number and output channel. This VCR is programmed with codes necessary to control channel selection on most brands of cable boxes at the time this VCR was manufactured. It is possible that new cable boxes may be introduced that cannot be controlled with this VCR's Cable Mouse. If you have a cable box that is incompatible with this VCR, contact your cable operator -- they may be able to provide you with a compatible cable box. 123 456 789 0 Number buttons MENU Cursor stick M/m/
