STEP 3: CONNECTING
THE IR
CONTROLLER
The IR (Infrared) Controller enables GUIDE Plus+ Gold" to control your
VCR and cable box (if necessary) so that you can tune to television
channels and even start recording a program from the program guide.
After you have affixed the ends of the controller to the necessary devices
(VCR, or Cable box), you will use the on-screen interactive setup routine
for GUIDE Plus+ to test the connected devices.
The IR Controller is used to send commands
to your VCR and/or cable boy.
ATTACHING
THE
IR CONTROLLERS
Some components label the infrared remote sensor, and others do not. If
your component is labeled, affix the IR controller directly over the
sensor. For components that do not label the remote sensor, you need to

release the power button each time you move the remote. Holding
