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 53).
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.
