Operating Your TV/VCR Combo Unit

Some TV/VCR combination units may be controlled by using a combination of
TV and VCR codes. For example, the Samsung TV/VCR combo unit may be
controlled by both the Samsung TV code and the Samsung VCR code.

Special Operations

RCA, GE and PROSCAN Brand Devices:
Many of these devices (TVs and VCRs) will not need to be programmed. In
the event that programming is required, the code search method is suggested.
Note: With these brands, the device button (TV, VCR1, VCR2•LD, AUDIO)
will usually turn the units on. The POWER button will only turn off the
device, if you used the TV, VCR1 or AUDIO button to turn the unit on.
SCIENTIFIC ATLANTIC Cable Boxes:
This brand of cable box can be programmed using the code search method by
using the CHANNEL UP key rather than POWER during Code Search. NOTE:
The device must be turned on prior to beginning the code search. Once the
device turns off, press and release ENTER.
In most cases this cable box can be turned on and off using the CHANNEL UP
key not the POWER button. If the unit will not turn
on using the CHANNEL UP key, then manually turn it on and only partial
compatibility will be achieved.
JERROLD or GENERAL INSTRUMENTS Cable Boxes:
These units can be programmed using the code search method. In some cases,
these devices will change channels during the code search. Continue until the
unit turns off, then press and release ENTER.
ZENITH and OAK Cable Boxes
Some Zenith and Oak Cable Boxes require pressing CHANNEL DOWN rather
than ENTER after numeric entry.
