`
`Introducing the VCR Commander Service
`
`The VCR CommanderTM service allows you to easily record
`programs whether your television is on or off. You simply select
`programs to record from the Explorer® Digital Home
`Communications Terminal (DHCT) Interactive Program Guide
`(IPG) or use the VCR Timer feature. The VCR Commander service
`works with models of the Explorer DHCT that have the infrared
`(IR) port on the back of the unit to control VCR recording.
`Before you can use the VCR Commander service, you must
`connect the IR Blaster and then set up the DHCT to recognize
`your brand of VCR.
`Use this guide for the following tasks:
`• Connecting the IR Blaster to the Explorer DHCT and to your
`VCR
`• Setting up the VCR Commander service to work with your
`brand of VCR
`• Scheduling a program to record on your VCR
`Notes:
`• The IR Blaster is compatible with all Explorer DHCTs except the
`Explorer 2000; for the Explorer 2000 refer to the VCR
`CommanderTM Module User’s Guide.
`• Refer to your DHCT user’s installation guide for information
`about setting up your Explorer DHCT, and to your remote
`control user’s guide for information about setting up and
`using your remote control.

`Installing the IR Blaster, Continued
`
`Attaching the IR Blaster to Your VCR
`1. Refer to your VCR user’s guide
`to locate the IR sensor window.
`(The IR sensor is where the VCR
`receives the remote control signal.)
`2. Remove the covering on the
`adhesive strip from the loop
`tape, which is attached to the
`hook fastener on the IR
`Blaster.
`Notes:
`• Attaching the IR Blaster to
`the VCR may be easier if the
`loop tape remains attached
`to the hook fasteners.
`• After attaching the IR Blaster to the VCR, the hook
`and loop fastener allows you to easily remove the IR
`Blaster for cleaning or to move the VCR.
`3. Mount the IR Blaster within 3 inches of the IR sensor on your
`VCR by pressing the IR Blaster against your VCR to secure it.
`Notes:
`• A , B, C, and D are typical places where the IR Blaster can
`be attached (within 3 inches of the IR sensor on your VCR).
`• Do not block the tape insert door on your VCR.
