Getting Started
Setting up the
G-CODE system
The G-CODE system is a feature
included in Sony VCRs that simplifies
programming the VCR to make timer
recordings. To use the G-CODE system,
each programme position needs to be
matched with its G-CODE guide
channel. To get the guide channel
numbers, look in the programme guide
for your area that features G-CODE
numbers.
If you want to record satellite broadcast
using the G-CODE system, see page 27.
Before you start…
• Turn on the VCR and the TV.
• Set the TV to the video channel.
