How can I use the Digital set top box and VCR to record future programs?
To record a future program: Set top box instructions: • Select the program you want to record from the TV listings. • Press OK/Select to bring up the Program Information screen with the Quick Menu. • Select the Record icon from the Quick Menu/ • Select Record Future Program. • Once the set top box is set, a message displays reminding you to set up the VCR. VCR Instructions: • Turn on your VCR and tune to channel 3 or 4 (depending on your manufacturer’s instructions). • The VCR needs to be programmed to record channel 3 or 4, as the set top is controlling the channel to be recorded, not the VCR • When the program starts, the set top box will automatically tune to the program so that your VCR can record it. *Please note: The steps above apply to standard-definition set top boxes, with the exception of the Motorola DCT2000.
