I have installed one nightvision camera, one
eagle eye outdoor sensor and one VCR
Commander II. They all worked as instructed.
But the problem is on my Sharp VCR that the
start-up (or warm-up) time from standby mode
to catch the first image would take around 3
to 4 seconds and it's bit too late. Does
anyone have a better idea to catch the
instant image please? And the 5 minutes run-
down time is a bit too long. Can it be
changed to 1 or 2 minutes to stop recording?

Hi GA,
The best way to do it is to leave the VCR
ON all the time.  Change the  series of IR
command on the VCR Commager II.  STOP-
Channel(i.e. 3)-RECORD-STOP.

Don't follow the POWERON-RECORD-STOP-
POWEROFF.

The 5 minutes is the only setting available
so far.

I cannot seem to get my VCR commander 11.
configured I tried everyting the book said
but I cannot seem to get it to learn the
VCR commands. Any suggestion anyone???

I had the same problem. Just erase all codes
and start all over again. The VCR controllers
I received already were programmed and would
not accept new IR codes. If you erase all
codes as per the instructions, it should then
accept your codes. It worked for me. Good luck.

I had same problem programing VCR Commander
II. I contacted X10 support and they said
the directions sent with my order were
incorrect and they emailed the correct
instructions, which worked.

James, can you post the new instructions?
