USING THE VCR PLUS+ SYSTEM FOR RECORDING
USING THE VCR PLUS+ SYSTEM FOR RECORDING
About
the
VCR
Plus+
system
This handy feature makes timed recording a snap. You don't need to enter the specific channel, date, time,
or duration of a program. All you enter is its PlusCode programming number - a number of up to eight
digits. This special code is easy to find in your favorite TV program guide or daily newspaper. Here's a
sample page from TV Guide showing PlusCode numbers next to each program.
Your local channels may be different from the VCR Plus+ channel codes. To get ready to record with the
VCR Plus+ system you need to assign your local broadcast and cable channel numbers to the VCR Plus+
channel codes already stored in your VCR's memory. This is called channel setup and you do it using the
on-screen Easy Guide System and the following step-by-step instructions. Then you will be ready to begin
VCR Plus+ recording, also using the on-screen Easy Guide System.

Channel setup
Before you begin
1
Look for a listing like this one in your local TV program guide or Sunday newspaper TV section. Notice
the small numbers to the right of the station name.
These are the VCR Plus+ channel numbers that you will use in the channel setup procedure.
2
Make a list of the VCR Plus+ channel numbers and the channel numbers you are receiving them on. If
there are any differences,
YOUR
channel numbers must be assigned to the corresponding VCR Plus+
numbers. (See Example)
