Channel Mapping Overview

The VCR Plus Guide channel nunibe_s listed.in Column 2 on the

worksheet below are u.sed on a nationwide basis, for the most part. In

contrast, your local TV stations and cable networks usually assign

different numbers to the TV channels you receive. In order for the

remote to accurately tune your cable box (or VCR),your loca!

channel numbers must be "Mapped '_to the VCR Plus+ GUIDE CH

Numbers.

Complete the Channel Mapping Worksheet

Refer to your local TV guide. Using a pencil, mark your local TV

channel numbers inColumn 3 on the worksheet.

To do this, look up your channel numbers in the wor.ksfieet below. If.

the channel number in Column 2 (GUIDE CH) is the same as the

number you view that channel on, do nothing. If the number is

different, write !tin Column 3 (TV CH). Do this for all the channels

you receive, including the Broadcast Channels (ABC, NBC, etc.)

For exampk;, if you receive Gala Vision at home on TV Channel 20,

write 20 in Column 3 on the GALA line. If you receive HBO at

home on "Ia/Channel 4, write 134in Column 3 in the HBO line as

shown at the right.

Example: Writing in TVCII Numbers for_Gala aniiI-IBO :

Cable Channels IGUIDE( " I ..... I

Notes:

Be sure to "Channel Map" the Guide Ch 3r PlusCode

numbers to your local area's TV channel numbers, or your

VCR will record adifferent channel than the one you

•intended.

Once you complete the Worksheet below, you must change

the default channels on the remote see next pi_ge.

The broadcast channels (,_d3C, CBS etc.), vary in different

areas. Write in the VCE Pltis Guide channel numbers in the

spaces provided on the Worksheet below for any channels

not listed but available to you in your local area The •

channels (defaults) on yotx remote are "rnapped" to the

channel numbers shown on the worksheet. In other words,

Channel 2 is mapped as Channel 2, Channel 3 is mapped as

Channel 3, etc.
