Getting Started Step 8 : Setting up the VCR Plus+C3® system How the VCR Plus+C3 system works Whenever you want to record a TV program, all you need to do is look up the "PlusCode" number, a number assigned to each program published in the TV section of most newspapers, cable TV listings, and even TV GUIDE magazine. Then, just enter the PlusCode number of the program you want and the VCR is automatically programed to record that show. It's that simple. How to set up your VCR Setting up your VCR involves coordinating the TV channel number (the number you turn to on your TV or VCR to watch a program) with the guide channel (the number that is assigned to that channel in your 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. It usually looks like the example to the right. To set the guide channels, use the Channel Line-up Chart to check that the guide channel numbers match the TV channel your VCR receives. For example, if HBO is listed in the Channel Line-up Chart as channel 33, and your VCR receives HBO on channel 5, you need to coordinate these numbers using the following procedure. If the guide and TV channel numbers are the same, you can skip this procedure.
