Advanced Operations Advanced Operations This section explains how to use the VCR's remote control to operate your TV. It also shows you how to hook up a cable box and how to connect a stereo or a second VCR for a complete home entertainment system. Controlling Your TV with the VCR's Remote Compatibility The remote control is designed to be compatible with many televisions, but will not work with every one made. If your TV or cable box does not respond the way it should when you program it as explained below, this remote may be incapable of operating it. Once you have programmed the remote, you won't have to do it again until you change the batteries. This Hitachi remote control can be used with your TV as well as the VCR, as long as your TV comes with a remote control. This feature comes in handy - you don't have to juggle two remotes. The remote control is compatible with the fifteen makers of TV's listed below - but don't be alarmed if yours is not on our list. You may still be able to program the remote for your TV. Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain infrared signals. You need to program the VCR's remote control to send signals that your TV will recognize and respond to. Here's what to do: Programming the Remote Control Turn the television on (any channel is okay). Aim the VCR's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the TV button (not the VCR/TV button) while you press the number corresponding to your brand of television as shown in the chart (page 49). For example, if you have an RCA television, press TV and 0 at the same time. If this button combination sends a signal that matches your TV, the channel will change on the TV, and you'll know the remote is set to control the television. If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list of button combinations one by one until you find one that does change your TV channel. Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the number buttons. One of them may work for you. If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations listed, it is likely that you will not be able to program this remote control for your TV.

First press TV to change to the TV function mode, then press the button of the TV function that you want. For example, press TV and the CHANNEL up arrow, and the TV station will change to the next higher station. Press VCR1 or VCR2 on respective mode to operate your VCR with the remote again. Be aware that not all of your TV's functions may work even though the remote control is correctly programmed. Advanced Operations (Cable Box Hookups) Advanced Operations (Cable Box Hookups) Hooking Up to a Cable Box The cable box brings all the advantages of pay cable, but finding a satisfactory hookup can be challenging. To sort out what to do, we suggest a step-by-step approach to installation. Before you begin, take a close look at the back of your TV to see where cables are currently connected. You may need to reconnect them that way later. As an aid to memory, use masking tape to label each cable and connection. Position Cable Box Position a remote-controllable cable box on the top of the VCR as shown. Be sure not to block any of the VCR's ventilation holes. A. Basic hookup Use this hookup for a simple connection which requires fewer accessories. 1. Set the CH3 CH4 switch on the back of VCR to either channel 3 or 4. You will tune the TV to this channel and use the VCR/TV button to watch the VCR. 2. Connect as shown. This connection may require additional accessories not provided. 3. Plug in power cords of VCR, TV, and cable box. Check all the TV and VCR functions. B. Advanced hookup (Cable Box to unscramble all channels) Use this hookup for slightly improved picture quality and more convenient operation - use of VCR/TV button not required. 1. Connect as shown. This connection requires additional accessories not provided. Advanced Operations (Cable Box Hookups) 2. Plug in power cords of VCR, TV, and cable box. You will tune the TV to its video input to watch the VCR. Illustration of Hookup If your cable box has audio/video output jacks, you can also connect the audio/video output of the cable box and the audio/video input of the VCR. With this connection, press the AVX button to select L1 as the output channel of the cable box (see page 44). C. Advanced Hookup (Cable Box to unscramble only pay channels) 1. Connect as shown.
