How to Locate the VCR’s Remote Control Sensor
The VCR Controller must be affixed directly over the infrared remote sensor on your VCR.
Some VCRs have a label that identifies the infrared remote sensor, and others do not. If
the IR sensor is labeled on your VCR, affix the VCR Controller directly over the sensor.
For VCRs that do not have a label for the remote sensor, you need to use the VCR’s
remote to locate the sensor before affixing the VCR Controller.
1. Hold the VCR’s remote control so that it is touching the front of the VCR.
2. Slowly move the remote over the front of the VCR while pressing the remote power
button on and off.
