Automatic TV channel search
(Autoinstall)
During installation, all available TV channels are searched for
and saved. If the channel assignments of your cable or
satellite TV provider change or if you are reinstalling the video
recorder, e.g. after moving house, you can start this procedure
again. This will replace the TV channels already saved with the
new ones.
What does Easy Link do?
With Easylink, TV channels can only be searched for and
saved on the TV set. These settings are accepted by the
video recorder. Therefore, this function starts the transfer of
TV channels from the TV set.

when you use a scart cable to connect the video recorder to
your TV set and your TV set responds to this switch-over.

After you have performed the automatic channel search you
may not agree with the sequence in which the individual TV
channels have been allocated to the programme positions
(programme numbers) of the video recorder. You can use this
function to individually sort the TV channels already saved or
to delete unwanted TV channels or those with poor reception.

If you save a TV channel which transmits TXT/PDC on
programme number 'P01', date and time will automatically
be transmitted and constantly updated. As a result, time
