for your TV.
Every TV that comes with a remote control is set up to detect certain infrared signals.
You need to program the camera/recorder remote control to send signals that your TV
will recognize and respond to. Here's what to do:
Programming the Remote Control
Turn the television on (any channel is okay).
Aim the camera/recorder's remote control at your TV set. Hold down the CH (
)
button while you press the button corresponding to your brand of television as shown in
the chart (page 42).
For example, if you have an RCA television, press CH (
) and DISPLAY at the same
time. If this button combination sends a signal that matches with your TV, the channel
will change on the TV, and you'll know the remote is set to control the television.
If that button combination does not change the TV channel, go through the whole list
of button combinations one by one until you find one that does change your TV channel.
Also, if your brand of TV is not listed in the chart, try all the buttons. One of them may
work for you.
If the TV channel still doesn't change after going through all the button combinations
listed, it is likely that you will not be able to program this remote control for your TV.
