Introducing the VCR Commander Service
Setting the timer on your VCR
to record programs is now a thing
of the past! With the VCR
Commander
TM
service and your
Explorer
®
Digital Home
Communications Terminal
(DHCT), you simply set up the
VCR Commander service once.
Then, recording a program is quick
and easy. You can either use the
one-touch recording feature to
record your current program, use
the Interactive Program Guide (on-
screen program guide) to choose a
future program to record, or use
the VCR Timer feature to record a
program at a specific date and
time.
The VCR Commander service
works with the models of the
Explorer DHCT that have an
infrared (IR) port on the back
panel.
To set up the VCR Commander
service, you must connect the IR
Blaster to the Explorer DHCT, 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 DHCT. For the
Explorer 2000 DHCT, contact
your cable service provider to
request an earlier version of the
VCR Commander Module and
the VCR Commander
TM
Module
User’s Guide, part number 716383.
• Refer to your DHCT user’s
installation guide for information
about setting up your Explorer
DHCT.
• Refer to your remote control
user’s guide for information
about setting up and using your
remote control.
