The device is set into a desired mode of operation by manual scanning, with an optical receiver, one or more code groups printed on a selection card. Respective selection cards have code groups for selecting, for example, mode, channel, day of week, recording start time, tape select, and recording end time. Code signals provided from the scanning instrument are processed in a data processing circuit, which can be provided as a microprocessor and included in the VTR to provide control signals to the VTR in response to information contained in the scanned code groups. Alternatively, a combination of an FM receiver and high fidelity audio recorder can be set into an auto record mode or other complex operating mode. This is done by scanning of selection cards with a scanning instrument associated with the combination.
