Connecting AV COMPU LINK supported devices
AV COMPU LINK remote control system is a system in which related devices are automatically controlled when you operate one device.
If you apply this system to the TV, you can have the TV automatically perform the required operations by operating one external device. You don’t have to use the TV’s remote control to turn on the TV or change the VIDEO modes.
Examples of the AV COMPU LINK remote control system operations
Simply by pressing the PLAY button on a VCR or a DVD player, you can view images from the device.
Simply by inserting a prerecorded tape (a tape with the record safety tab removed) to a VCR, you can view the tape.
Simply by operating the AV Control Receiver, you can have the TV turned on/off (in standby mode) or the VIDEO mode changed correctly.
•The performance of the AV COMPU LINK remote control system varies depending on the connected device. See the device’s instruction manual.
•When you select “TV SOUND” as the input source with the AV Control Receiver, there are cases where the TV’s muting function automatically operates and the sound from the TV’s speakers is muted.
In such cases, press the 7q buttons or the l (muting) button on the TV’s remote control to cancel the muting function. You can regain the sound from the TV’s speakers.
