The AV input of this VCR is equipped for future use with external equipment
having external timer recording control such as digital satellite receivers. The
AV input can be set to EXT LINK 1 or EXT LINK 2 depending on the equipment
to be connected. Fully wired 21-pin scart cable is required. Refer also to the
manufacturer’s instruction for the external unit.
The VCR recording start and stop time is controlled by a control
signal sent via the 21-pin scart cable from the external unit, for
example Sky Digibox.
The VCR will start recording when AV input detects the video
signal and stop recording when the video signal is switched off by
the external unit.
