Installation: Turn off the power to the tape deck. Plug the remote adapter into the remote connector on the back of the tape deck. Now power can be turned back on. The light on the front of the remote adapter should be on.
The remote adapter can control up to 6 functions of the deck: Play, Stop,
F.F., Rewind, Record and Pause. The transport functions map to the appropriate
buttons on the remote control. On the DirecTV remote REC must be double
pressed before Record is activated on the deck. To initiate Record, double
press REC on the remote and then within about ½ second press Play or Pause.
The remote adapter box can be used with any universal remote programmed for
the proper Sony VCR code. To select between them there are jumpers inside the
unit. Remove the two screws on the bottom of the unit and remove the top
cover. Located near the front window is a jumper block two jumpers. These
jumpers configure what type of Sony VCR codes the unit will respond to. See
the table below for a list of jumper settings.
