8 Hookups With a Cable Box/Direct Broadcast System
There are two ways to connect your Cable Box/DBS to the VCR. With this connection:
● You may view any channel.
● You must select channels at the Cable Box/DBS. Channels cannot be changed at the VCR.
● You may not view a channel other than the one you are recording.
● You may not program channels at the VCR.
● You can only program a timer recording for one channel at a time. Set the TV and the VCR to the Cable
Box/DBS output channel (channel 03 or 04), and set your Cable Box/DBS to the channel you want to record.
When you enter the channel you want to record in a timer recording, select channel 03 or 04 (the Cable
Box/DBS output channel). (This is step 5 on page 35.) Leave the Cable Box/DBS on for a timer recording.
● If you use the VCR Plus+ Programming system, set the Cable/TV channel to 3 or 4 (Cable Box/DBS output
channel) for every VCR Plus+ channel in the VCR Plus+ Cross Reference Map. You must set the Cable
Box/DBS to the channel you want to record; leave the Cable Box/DBS on for the timer recording. Details are
on page 39.

you tell the VCR the current time. With automatic clock setting,
the VCR gets the current time from your local PBS station. It
keeps track of the time by constantly referring to the time broad-
casted by your PBS station.

S-VHS Q uasi Play Back (SQ PB)
Helpful Hint
This unit has a SQPB function that allows you to view a tape
recorded in S-VHS format. A tape recorded in S-VHS format will
play the same as a tape recorded in normal format. This unit
detects whether the tape is recorded in S-VHS format or in nor-
mal format.
• If the tape you want to play is
already in the VCR, make sure the
VCR power is on and the VCR is in
VCR position. (The VCR light will
appear on the display panel. If it
does not, press the VCR/TV button
once.) Press the VCR button, then
press the PLAY/o button.
• Other playback options and fea-
tures are on pages 44-57.
• When you play a tape recorded in
S-VHS format on this unit, you can
not get the high resolution that
would be available on an S-VHS
VCR. Noise lines (black and white
streaks) may appear on the picture.
• If REPEAT PLAY is set to ON, play-
back will begin automatically, even
when the record tab is intact.

38 Setting Up the VCR Plus+ Programming System
1
First, fill in the boxes on this page. It will only take a few minutes, and you must do it if you want the VCR
Plus+ programming system to work properly.
Since the channel numbers of the stations you receive may not be the same as the station numbers, and
since channel numbers differ from area to area, you must program the VCR with your local channel infor-
mation. To fill in the boxes, you will need 1) a cable channel list, if applicable (you can request one from
your cable company), and 2) a chart that lists VCR Plus+ channel numbers, which you can find in your TV
guide or the TV listings of your local newspaper.
NO TE: If you are using a Cable Box/DBS, the Cable/TV channel m ust be 3 or 4 (the Cable
Box/DBS output channel) for every VCR Plus+ channel.

Automatic Operation Features 45
The following playback features will always operate.
Autom atic Playback
When you put a tape in the VCR, the power will come on auto-
matically. If the tape’s record tab is missing, playback will begin.
If a timer recording is set, the power will not come on automati-
cally when you insert a tape with the record tab intact.
If a timer recording is set and the VCR power is off, the VCR will
eject the tape if the record tab is missing.
Autom atic Rewind, Eject, O ff
When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the
VCR will rewind the tape, stop, eject the tape, and turn itself off.
If the real-time counter memory is set, the VCR will only rewind
the tape to the point at which the counter is set to zero, then
stop. The VCR will not eject the tape automatically or shut itself
off.
Tape Eject
A tape can be ejected with the VCR power on or off (but the
VCR must be plugged in). If a timer recording is set, a tape can
only be ejected with the power on. Make sure you insert a tape
and turn off the VCR power for the timer recording.
Autom atic Tracking Adjustm ent
The VCR adjusts tracking automatically to give you the best possi-
ble picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a
better picture using the manual tracking controls (see below).
Manual Tracking
To manually adjust the tracking during playback and slow motion
playback, press the CHANNEL o/p buttons on the VCR or the
TRACKING o/p button on the remote control.
Tracking will return to Automatic Tracking Adjustment when you
press the STOP/p button or insert a tape.

Multi-Channel Television Sound System 55
Your VCR can play recordings broadcast in Hi-Fi (high fidelity) stereo, which produces a crisp, clear sound
from two sources. Your VCR also can play tapes recorded in a second audio (usually, that means your
program is recorded in a second language). Of course, your VCR will play tapes recorded in monaural
(single-source) sound as well.
Your VCR also will record in Hi-Fi stereo or in second audio, so when you play back that tape on the
VCR, it will be in stereo or second audio.
Read the directions on this page to familiarize yourself with your VCR’s stereo and second audio setups.
Then follow the directions on page 56 to record in stereo or second audio and the directions on page 57
to play back tapes recorded in Hi-Fi stereo.

grammed to receive a second
audio or stereo broadcast (it
cannot be programmed to
receive both at the same
time). Follow the steps on
page 56 to program the VCR
to receive a second audio or
stereo broadcast.
STEREO that appears on this side
of the status display tells you if
the program you’re watching is
available in second audio or

• You may need to tune your TV again.
The m otor (cylinder) rotates even when the VCR is in Stop m ode.

• When you connect the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR to the AUDIO IN jacks on your TV, the stereo
light on the TV might not glow. As long as the VCR status display indicates you are receiving a stereo
signal, you are receiving a stereo signal. This is normal.
• Only tapes recorded in Hi-Fi audio will play back in Hi-Fi audio. Tapes recorded in normal audio will
play back in monaural (single sound source) audio.
Cleaning the Video Heads
• Your VCR automatically cleans the video heads each time you insert a tape. However, the heads may
become dirty. If so, use a commercially-available head cleaner or have an authorized servicer clean the
video heads. Eventually, the heads may need to be replaced.
The playback picture is too dim , too bright, or fluctuates in brightness.
• Some programs may be broadcast with copyright protection technology in order to protect the rights of
copyright owners. This technology is used on programs that are recorded on video tapes or Digital
Video Discs (DVDs), as well as some programs broadcast by antenna/cable/satellite television channels.
Programs broadcast with copyright protection technology may not record clearly. Likewise, if you play a
tape that is a recording of a copyright protected program, the picture may not be clear. Tapes of copy-
right protected programs may have a picture that is dark or dim, or the brightness of the picture may
fluctuate. Therefore, you should avoid recording or playing copies of copyright protected programs. This
VCR incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S.
patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights own-
ers. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation and is
