Using AV Link function

This TV incorporates three typical AV Link functions for smooth connections between the TV and other audiovisual equipment.

One Touch Play

While the TV is in standby mode, it automatically turns on and plays back the image from the audiovisual source (e.g. VCR, DVD).

WYSIWYR (What You See Is What You Record)

When the remote control unit of the connected VCR has the WYSIWYR button, you can automatically start recording by pressing the WYSIWYR button.

Preset Download

Automatically transfers the channel preset information from the tuner on the TV to the one on the connected audiovisual equipment (e.g. VCR) via the EXT 2 terminal.

NOTE

Refer to operation manuals of each external equipment for the details.

Only works when the audiovisual equipment is connected to the EXT 2 terminal on the TV with AV Link via a fully wired SCART.

The use of the AV Link function is only possible if the TV- set has enforced a complete auto-installation with the connected audiovisual equipment (page 8, Initial auto installation).

The availability of the AV Link function depends on the audiovisual equipment used. Depending on the manufacturer and type of equipment used, it is possible that the described functions may be completely or partially unusable.
