Connecting additional devices

Connecting G transmitter

The external receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box) is controlled via the DVD recorder with the G-LINK cable J (supplied). This means you can record TV shows that are received only through the external receiver.

Connecting the G-LINK cable J enables the GUIDE Plus+® system to show the correct listing.

1Connect the G-LINK cable to the G-LINKT socket at the back of the DVD recorder.

2Position the G-LINK transmitter J in front of the external receiver so that the control signal (IR signal) can be transmitted and received by the receiver unhindered.

How do I find the right position?

If the position of the remote (IR) receiver is indicated on your external receiver (IR, remote sensor, or such like), place the transmitter

J about 1 to 10 cm in front of it.

If the position is not indicated, proceed as follows:

-Switch off the external receiver.

-Point the remote control at the front of the external receiver.

-Move the remote control slowly along the front while repeatedly pressing the on/off button.

-When the external receiver switches on or off, you've found the receiver.

-Attach the G-LINK transmitter J about one to 10 cm in front of it.

Connecting additional devices via aerial cable only

The DVD-Recorder must be connected directly to the TV via a scart cable. If there is an additional device (e.g. a video recorder) in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD-Recorder.

The additional device must be connected before the DVD recorder (additional device - DVD recorder - TV). Only the TV must be connected to the TV OUT L socket.

If there is picture interference when the additional device is switched on, a TV broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the additional device. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 45, additional device also on channel 45). In this case, change the channel of the additional device. Consult the instruction manual of the additional device.

You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to record TV programmes from the additional device.

To connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver) via aerial cable only, please observe the following:
