Any particular brand vcr the commander will easily setup with ?
Thank you for the info, it was better than the info that came wit hthe unit but it is still not working. This VCR Commander is the weak link of the system and without it working, the system is of little use to me..
How can a person tell if the sensors are activating the unit and that they are programmed correctly to issue a record or stop command to this VCR Commander? Does a light go on when the camera triggers it? The cameras turn on and off via the sensors ok but I can not tell if the VCR Commander is getting their signal also.. how can i test to make sure that the VCR Commander is getting the sensor's signal?
Secondly, is there a way to test whether the VCR Commander is actually sending a record or stop signal to the VCR? The light on the VCR Commander reacts correctly per the instructions that you led me to but I can not tell if the VCR Commander is sending out a signal or if it learned the VCR codes correctly. I can record and stop the VCR with my remote so I know the VCR is working and I have moved the IR emitter around and even held it in front of the VCR at different angles. Is ther ea way to force the VCR Commander to send a record and stop command on its IR emitter by pressing the buttons? How can I test this?
Thank you in advance for any help with this...
I f you can get the VCR commander set to Home (no blinking light) you can test. A RF ON command will trigger the light to flash as well as make beeping sounds! ;) :D ;D

So when it's set to home it's always supposed to beep every time motion is detected? This would be annoying.

No it does not beep every time motion is detected, actually the away mode is right above the stop. The long beep is when you press the "Learn MS" right over the play button.
