Auto Tuning

This menu lets you specify the various components you have connected to your TV. It lets you program a component button on the remote control (VCR, AUX, DVD, SAT/CAB, or AUDIO) so that pressing the button automatically turns on the TV and turns the TV to the correct Video Input Channel (go to Chapter 3 for detailed information).

Notes: The AUX button by default is set up for a second RCA VCR. If you need to reprogram the AUX button, or instead want to program the VCR button, use the 2001 code. Then use the VCR2 option in the auto tuning menu to set auto tuning.

If you have two RCA satellite receivers, you can control each separately. Program the second receiver with the AUX button using the 5001 code. Then use the RCA SAT2 option in the auto tuning menu to set auto tuning.

Main Menu Connections

The DTVLink Setup menu has screens for setting up DTVLink devices to work with the TV.

•DTVLink Connect: Set an analog input for a DTVLink device.

•Recording Device: Select a default digital recording device.

Two lines of help text will appear in this area to explain the feature and instruct the user on how to use it.

DTVLink Setup

The DTVLink Setup option lets you set items specific to the component(s) connected to your DTVLink (1394) jack(s).

•DTVLink Connect applies to those DTVLink components that require a DTVLink and analog connection. Only that type of DTVLink component will appear. Highlight the choice field under your model, and press OK to choose the analog input you’re using.

•If you have more than one DTVLink component connected to your TV, the Recording Device menu allows you to choose which component you want to use as your default to record when you press the RECORD button on your remote and component. Go to page 52 for more information on setting a DTVLink recording and for an explanation of the options in the screen.

Notes: The TV only outputs video and audio to a component which enforces copy-protection measures.

Some components that don’t support Digital Copy Protection may cause errors on the DTVLink connection if another source that supports Digital Copy Protected material is connected to the DTVLink.
