VCR Plus+ is a feature in SONY VCRs that simplifies the task of programming the
VIDEO TV to make timer recordings.
How VCR Plus+ works
Whenever you want to record a TV program, all you need to do is to look up the
program's "PlusCode," a number assigned to each program that's published in the
TV section of most newspapers, cable TV listings, and even TV GUIDE magazine.
Then, just enter the PlusCode of the program you want and the VIDEO TV is
automatically programmed to record that show. It's that simple. With VCR Plus+ ,
you no longer have to go through a lengthy and often repetitive procedure when you
set start and stop times, channel
numbers,
and dates. All this information
is
automatically sent to your VIDEO TV when you enter the program's PlusCode.
Setting Up VCR Plus +
Setting up your VIDEO TV involves coordinating the TV channel number(the
number you turn on your set to watch a program) with the guide channel number
(the number that's assigned to that channel in your program guide). To get the guide
channel numbers, find the "Channel Line-up Chart" in the program guide for your
area that features VCR PlusCodes. It usually looks like the example on page 45.
For each channel your VIDEO TV receives, use the Channel Line-up Chart to check
that the channel numbers match. For example, if HBO is listed in the Channel Line-
up Chart on channel 33, and your VIDEO TV receives HBO on channel 15, you
need to coordinate these numbers using the following procedure. For channels in
which the numbers are the same (for example, if your VIDEO TV recevies HBO on
channel 33, and the guide channel number is 33), you can skip this procedure.
