VIERA Link is a convenient function that offers linked operations of this unit and
a Panasonic TV (VIERA 2007 or later). You can use this function by connecting
the equipment with the HDMI cable.
When you turn the TV to standby, the recorder is also automatically turned to
standby. The unit is automatically turned to standby even if the Function Menu
screen, the status message or the on-screen display is displayed, during
playback, or when the unit is set to a timer recording.
Even if the TV is turned to standby, the recorder will not be turned to standby at
the same time when recording, copying, finalising, etc.
