SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

STEP 3: CONNECT THE G-LINK CABLE

The G-LINK cable enables the Guide Plus+ system (the on-screen guide that lists what shows are on TV) to work with your VCR and/or cable box.

Cable Box – If your TV is connected to a cable box and you don’t connect the G-LINK cable, no channels may be listed in the on-screen program guide.

VCR – If your TV is connected to a VCR and you don’t connect the G-LINK cable, one-touch recording won’t work. The other features of the guide will work properly.

HOW TO FIND THE REMOTE CONTROL SENSOR

You have to place the wands on the G-LINK cable in front of the remote control sensor on the VCR and/or cable box. Some cable boxes and VCRs have the remote control sensor labeled on the unit. If the remote sensor isn’t labeled on your VCR and/or cable box, you need to use the remote control that came with the VCR and/or cable box to locate the sensor.

1.Turn off the VCR and/or cable box.

2.Hold the remote control (not the one that came with your TV, but the one that came with the cable box and/or VCR) so it is touching the front of the component.

3.Slowly move the remote control across the front of the component (VCR or cable box) while you press the power button on and off. You must press and release the power button each time you move the remote (holding down the button won’t work).

4.When the component turns on, you’ve located the sensor.

5.Place the wands of the G-LINK cable underneath your VCR and/or cable box (see instructions below).

PLACING THE WANDS UNDER THE VCR AND/

OR CABLE BOX

Place the wands of the G-LINK cable underneath your VCR and/or cable box. Place them about one inch away from the remote control sensor.

The G-LINK cable is used to send commands to your VCR and/or cable box. You must remove the DEMO PIN before you can attach the G-LINK cable.

SENSOR

If you don’t have a VCR, just coil the cable of the extra G-LINK wand with a twist tie and leave it behind the TV.
