Hi All, Hope I am in the right NewsGroup Err. Nope [crossposting to sci.electronics.repair & uk.d-i-y] I have been given an ex-rental Granada Finlandia Video Recorder. It works fine using all the buttons on the machine, but, it has a remote control which has a LCD screen and I have no instructions for it. I can't even find anything on the net. Certain remote functions work ok but having difficulty trying to work out how to do timed recording. Anyone help please.... There is no model number on the unit only a serial number..... and DPSS on the front of the machine. The machine is made by Sharp. DPSS (Digital Program Search System) is their invention. So after a google for "sharp finlandia" we come to this list http://www.hamradio-badarc.co.uk/video/vcreq/eqvcr3.htm Granada VHSLY1 Sharp OEM Finlandia Granada VHSLY2 Sharp Finlandia Granada VHSMY6 Sharp VCA50HM Finlandia This might get you a little further with a google search, or someone else might now recognise it! -- Adrian C |
