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 an optional Cable
Mouse. With 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 Sony RM-
CMlOl Cable Mouse (not supplied) (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 the RM-CMIOI
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.
