Mr. Fox,

It may help me to help you. I'm assuming that
you mean that VCR device code 0043 controls VCR
A. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I have just done a fair ammount of research on
your behalf, and have come up with only two
possibilities which seem at all likely to work.
I am operating under the assumption that two
entirely different protocols would not be used to
control VCR A and VCR B, given that they are in
fact the same model, but with slightly different
configurations.

Based on this assumption, I have done an
exhaustive search of EVERY device code for EVERY
device category, i.e. TV, VCR, CBL/SAT, DVD/LD,
RCVR, CD, and AUX, in hope of finding any and all
device codes which select a similar IR protocol.

I have found TWO, and only two, possibilities. I
will assume that you are familiar with the use of
the 992 device key re-assignment code. If you
are not, please consult your manual, or the
directions found here:

[Link: hudsonag.com]

The two codes I found which MIGHT be able to
control VCR B are TV device code 0150, and DVD/LD
device code 0521

IMPORTANT: these are NOT VCR device codes. If
you try them as such, and they do nothing, it
will prove nothing.

Put another way, you must make sure that whatever
device key you assign 0150 to for trial purposes
is already configured via 992 as a TV device, and
similarly, you must make sure that the key to
which you assign 0521 is already configured as a
DVD/LD device.

For each of these two codes, try the POWER
button, and see if it will control your VCR B, or
whichever VCR it is that you have thus far been
unable to control.

Once you try these, please get back to me as soon
as possible, as I am eager to know if either one
works.
