Q Link Function

This function works only if the VCR is connected via a fully-
wired 21-pin Scart cable to a TV featuring the Q Link or
similar function.
Q Link offers the following functions:

°

(1) Download from the TV

When you connect the VCR to a TV, the station list data
is automatically copied from the TV to the VCR, and the
TV stations are assigned to the programme positions on
the VCR in the same order as on the TV.

°

(2) Direct TV Recording

By simply pressing the DIRECT TV REC button 6, you
can at once record the same programme that you are
watching on the TV.

°

(3) TV/VCR Auto Power On

Even if the TV and the VCR are off (standby mode),
pressing the Play I, SHOW VIEW L or PROG./CHECK
button < automatically turns on both the TV and the
VCR.

When a cassette with a broken erasure prevention tab
is in the VCR, it turns on and starts playback. The TV
also turns on.

°

(4) VCR Auto Power Off

When you turn the TV off, the VCR is turned off as well.
However, this function only works during rewinding, in
the stop mode, or when no cassette is inserted.
If the VCR receives the Auto Power Off command while
it is rewinding the tape, it turns off after the rewinding
has been finished.
This function does not work during the following
operations:
Preset Download, Auto Setup, Auto Clock Setting and
Manual Tuning.

°
