EN 19
The following procedure is required if you receive satellite channels
through a DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) Receiver. The Controller
allows the VCR to automatically switch the DBS Receiver's channels
during timer recording.
NOTES:
●
The VCR can automatically change the DBS Receiver channels
using the controller when the VCR has been programmed using
Express Timer Programming (
Z
pg. 50).
Because satellite programming does not use PlusCode; the
Controller can not change the DBS Receiver channels during
VCR Plus+ Timer Recording.
●
If a cable box is also used it is recommended that you
connect the DBS receiver to your VCR's A/V inputs and the
cable box to your VCR's antenna input.

Suggested Location
Place the DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) receiver on top of the
VCR. Attach the VCR's Controller to the top of the VCR with the
Controller’s transmitter pointed towards the DBS receiver's
remote sensor.
ATTTNTION:
The Controller can also control a cable box. If both a DBS
receiver and a cable box are used, position the controller so its
signal reaches the remote control sensors of both the DBS
receiver and cable box.
About Your DBS Receiver
This VCR has two separate methods to control your DBS Receiver.
●
The VCR's Wireless Remote Control Unit can control your
DBS Receiver.
This eliminates the need for a separate DBS Receiver Remote
Control Unit.
●
The VCR's Controller can also control your DBS Receiver.
This allows the VCR to change your DBS receiver's channel
number during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the VCR's
Remote Control unit, refer to page 62. To set up the Controller
go to page 20.

The connection method depends on the type of DBS
receiver you have.
If your DBS receiver has AUDIO and VIDEO OUT
connectors . . .
. . . connect them to the AUDIO and VIDEO IN
connectors on your VCR. Set the VCR to channel "L-1"
for the rear AUDIO and VIDEO IN connectors, or
channel "F-1" for the front AUDIO and VIDEO IN
connectors to use the DBS receiver.
If your DBS receiver doesn’t have AUDIO and VIDEO
OUT connectors . . .
. . . connect the antenna output connector on the DBS
receiver to the ANTENNA IN connector on the rear of
your VCR.
Set the VCR's tuner to the same channel as the DBS
receiver's RF output. (See page 20 also.)
NOTE:
When connecting your DBS receiver refer to its
instruction manual.
