Digital Link Plus

If you have connected the DVD recorder to a Loewe
TV set with Digital Link Plus or a comparable
system from another manufacturer (e.g. EasyLink,
Mega Logic, Project 50), the program list will be
transferred from the television set to the DVD re-
corder. This takes place when you register the DVD
recorder with the TV set, or when you make any
changes to the programs on the TV set (re-sorting,
deleting, adding). After a change of this sort, the
TV set will ask you to start transferring the changed
program list.
The DVD recorder detects a connected TV set with
Digital Link Plus or a similar system from another
manufacturer and adjusts the DVD recorder accord-
ingly. This means that you cannot search for, delete
or sort TV programs on the DVD recorder. The
menu items are grayed out; during the automatic
search it is only possible to transfer the program
information from the TV set. Note that all programs
that you receive via aerial or cable must be stored
in program numbers 1 to 88 on the TV set.
If the TV set does not ask you to transfer the
program information, then start the transfer on
the DVD recorder. If your TV set is equipped with
Digital Link Plus or with a comparable system from
another manufacturer, only carry out program
changes on the TV set.
If the TV set that you have connected to the DVD
recorder does not have Digital Link Plus or a
comparable system, then you should harmonize
the DVD recorder and TV set program lists. This will
help you to fi nd programs on the TV set and DVD
recorder.
