G-LINKª connection

This connection is necessary for the TV Guide On Screen™ system to work with your cable box to receive program listings and to enable the TV Guide On Screen™ recording features with your VCR.

This connection is not necessary for AVHD or D-VHS recording devices. See pages 23 and 50 for further details.

After you connect your devices to the TV, you will need to connect the G-LINKcable (either of the dual-wand IR blaster cables included with your TV) from your VCR and Cable box (if applicable) to the G-LINKterminal on the TV.

Note: TV Guide On Screenª program data is available through the ANT-1 and ANT-2 antenna inputs and also through the VIDEO 1 inputs if you have a cable box connected to VIDEO 1. TV Guide On Screenª program data is not available through any other inputs on this TV. See the connection information on pages 13Ð25.

The G-LINKconnection is necessary to enable the following features of your TV Guide On Screensystem:

If you have a Cable box, you need to connect the G-LINKcable from the Cable box to the G-LINKterminal to receive the TV Guide On Screenprogram listings for your Cable service.

If you have a VCR, you need to connect the G-LINKcable from the VCR to the G-LINKterminal to use the TV Guide On Screenrecording features.

To connect to the G-LINKªterminal:

Front of Cable box

 

1.Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your VCR or Cable box. The sensor is marked on some devices.*

2.Align one of the G-LINK(IR blaster) cable’s wands about 1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the VCR and attach it using double-sided mounting tape.

If you have a Cable box, attach the other wand in a similar manner. (See illustration at right.)

Note: If you do not have a Cable box, coil the second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.

3.Plug the G-LINK(IR blaster) cable’s plug into the TV’s G-LINKterminal.

3.If the device turns on, the point at which the remote control touched the device is the location of the sensor.

4.If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the right and press POWER again.

5.Repeat step 4 until you locate the deviceÕs infrared sensor.
