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 set up channels at the VCR.
• You can only program a timer recording for one channel at a time if you are not using the Controller. Set the VCR to the Cable Box/DBS output channel; set the CH3/CH4 switch to CH3 or CH4, whichever channel is not used or least used in your area, and set the TV to the same channel. 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 the Cable Box/DBS output channel. (This is step 3 on page 40.) Leave the Cable Box/DBS on for a timer recording.
• To set up the Controller, see pages 50-54.
