Cable Box Multi-Brand

Remote Control

The VCR's remote control can control functions on the brands
of cable boxes listed below. Some cable box brands have more
than one code. If your cable box does not function with a
specified code, try other codes.

TURN ON THE CABLE BOX

1

Turn the power on using the cable box’s remote control.

SET REMOTE CONTROL

MODE

2

Set the TV/CABLE/DBS/VCR switch on the VCR’s
remote control to CABLE/DBS.

ENTER CABLE BOX BRAND

3

While holding down POWER on the VCR's remote
control, use the NUMBER keys to enter the cable box
brand number from the chart at bottom left and then
press STOP.
Follow the example shown below.

● Once you have set the remote control to operate the

cable box, you don't have to repeat this step until you
replace the remote control's batteries.

OPERATE CABLE BOX

4

First, press POWER to see if the cable box’s power goes
off as it should. If it does, try other functions (CH

5∞

and the NUMBER keys can be used to operate the
cable box).

● For some brands of cable box, you must press ENTER

after having pressed the NUMBER keys.

● To return the remote to VCR control, set the TV/

CABLE/DBS/VCR switch to VCR.

NOTES:

You must set the cable box brand for your remote control and
the cable box brand for your Controller (

pg. 17) separately.

The list of cable box brands that can be controlled by your
remote control is different from the list of brands that can be
controlled by your controller.

It is possible that the remote control will not operate your cable
box even if the cable box’s channels automatically change
during timer recording using the Controller.

It's not possible to set the remote control for both your cable
box and a DBS receiver at the same time. You can only set the
remote control to operate one of these units at a time.
