Q Link Function

This function works only if the VCR is connected via a fully- wired 21-pin Scart cable to a TV featuring the Q Link or similar function.

Q Link offers the following functions:

(1)Download from the TV

When you connect the VCR to a TV, the station list data is automatically copied from the TV to the VCR, and the TV stations are assigned to the programme positions on the VCR in the same order as on the TV.

(2)Direct TV Recording

By simply pressing the DIRECT TV REC button 6, you can at once record the same programme that you are watching on the TV.

°(3) TV/VCR Auto Power On

Even if the TV and the VCR are off (standby mode), pressing the Play I, SHOW VIEW L or PROG./CHECK button < automatically turns on both the TV and the VCR.

≥When a cassette with a broken erasure prevention tab is in the VCR, it turns on and starts playback. The TV also turns on.

°(4) VCR Auto Power Off

When you turn the TV off, the VCR is turned off as well. However, this function only works during rewinding, in the stop mode, or when no cassette is inserted.

If the VCR receives the Auto Power Off command while it is rewinding the tape, it turns off after the rewinding has been finished.

This function does not work during the following operations:

Preset Download, Auto Setup, Auto Clock Setting and Manual Tuning.

°(5) On Screen Display Messages

When you are watching a TV programme, the following VCR messages appear on the TV screen to inform you of the VCR’s condition:
