Wireless Tascam RC-50 Remote Adapter

This unit controls following 7 function: Play, Pause, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Record and RTZ. It uses any standard universal remote programmed to control a Sony VCR.

I sell this on eBay for $100 or buy direct for $90 + shipping of $10 within the US or $25 to the rest of the world.

Installation: Turn off the power to the tape deck. Plug the remote adapter into the REMOTE connector on the back of the deck. Now power can be turned back on. The light on the front of the remote adapter should be on.

The remote adapter controls the following 7 functions: Play, Pause, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Record and RTZ. All functions can be controlled using any universal remote programmed for the proper Sony VCR code.

The remote adapter can be programmed to respond to Sony VHS VCR, Beta VCR, 8mm VCR and Laser Disc Player codes. To select between the four options there are two jumpers inside the unit. Remove the two screws on the bottom of the unit and remove the top cover.

Toward the front window are set of jumpers. The two jumpers labeled 1 and 2 configure the remote device code per the table below.

Configuring the DirecTV Universal Remote
To program the DirecTV remote first slide the switch at the top to AV1 or AV2. Press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons until the green light at the top blinks twice then release. Using the number keypad enter the 5-digit device code from the table above. If done correctly the green light will blink twice after the last digit is entered. On the DirecTV remotes the REC button needs to be pressed twice to activate record. For the full remote manual with code list click here
