Your unit’s VCR includes a cable box control feature that allows the
unit’s VCR to control most brands of cable boxes/DSS receivers via the
Cable Mouse. With cable box control, the unit’s VCR controls channels
on the cable box/DSS receiver for timer recording. You can also use the
VCR’s remote commander to change channels on the cable box/DSS
receiver whenever the cable box/DSS receiver is turned on even if the
unit’s VCR is turned off. To use cable box control, you need to connect
the Cable Mouse (pages 13 and 25) and set the code number and output
channel.
This unit is programed with codes necessary to control channel selection
on most brands of cable boxes at the time this unit was manufactured. 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.
