≥ Some satellite receivers offer less than 99 channels. In
this case, the number of the satellite channels that can be
controlled from the VCR is the same.
≥ Some satellite receivers offer more than 99 satellite
channels, but even in this case, only the satellite
channels 1 through 99 can be controlled from the VCR.
≥ With some satellite receivers, it is necessary to wait a few
seconds between selecting one channel and selecting
another one with the remote control of the VCR.
≥ If the display on the satellite receiver does not indicate
the channels, refer to its operating instructions and follow
the procedure for displaying the channels.
To Prepare the Satellite Receiver
To make it possible for the VCR to control the satellite
receiver, the satellite receiver must be left in a certain
condition. This condition is called standby type, and it differs
depending on the make and model of satellite receiver. There
are five standby types (A, B, C, D, E) as listed below.
Find your satellite receiver in the enclosed list of compatible
satellite receivers and note its standby type. Then look up this
standby type in the chart below and determine which
action(s) you need to take to prepare your satellite receiver
so that this VCR can control it.
Action 1: Switch the satellite receiver on.
Action 2: Twin-tuner type satellite receiver: Select on the
tuner which is connected to the VCR.
(Please also refer to the satellite receiver’s
operating instructions.)
Action 3: Switch the satellite receiver’s channel display to the
2-digit display mode.

Be Selected Correctly

Operations
1 Press the Numeric buttons 2 to select the satellite
channel.

) on the enclosed list of compatible
satellite receivers.
2 Check that the channel on the satellite receiver has
been changed to the channel that you selected.
Notes:
≥ After you have finished all settings and preparations, use
the VCR’s remote control to check that the satellite
programmes can be selected correctly and timer recordings
of satellite broadcast can be performed correctly.
≥ With some satellite receivers, correct control from the VCR
may not be possible.
≥ There may be a slight delay between pressing the Numeric
buttons 2 on the remote control and the changing of the
channel on the satellite receiver. This is due to the need for
signal conversion.

1 through 99.
