Connecting GLINK transmitter
The external receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box) is
controlled via the DVD recorder with the G-LINK cable
J
(supplied).
This means you can record TV shows that are received only through
the external receiver.
Connecting the G-LINK cable
J
enables the GUIDE Plus+
®
system to
show the correct listing.
1
Connect the G-LINK cable to the
G-LINK
T
socket at the back
of the DVD recorder.
2
Position the G-LINK transmitter
J
in front of the external
receiver so that the control signal (IR signal) can be transmitted
and received by the receiver unhindered.
How do I find the right position?
If the position of the remote (IR) receiver is indicated on your external
receiver (IR,remote sensor,or such like),place the transmitter
J
about 1 to 10 cm in front of it.
If the position is not indicated,proceed as follows:
- Switch off the external receiver.
- Point the remote control at the front of the external receiver.
- Move the remote control slowly along the front while repeatedly
pressing the on/off button.
- When the external receiver switches on or off,you've found the
receiver.
- Attach the G-LINK transmitter
J
about one to 10 cm in front of it.
Connecting additional devices via aerial cable only
To connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver) via aerial cable
only, please observe the following:
The DVD-Recorder must be connected directly to the TV via a scart
cable. If there is an additional device (e.g. a video recorder) in between,
the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system
built into the DVD-Recorder.
The additional device must be connected
before
the DVD recorder
(additional device - DVD recorder - TV). Only the TV must be
connected to the
TV OUT
L
socket.
If there is picture interference when the additional device is switched
on, a TV broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a
channel very close to that of the additional device. (e.g.: TV
broadcaster on channel 45, additional device also on channel 45). In
this case, change the channel of the additional device. Consult the
instruction manual of the additional device.
You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to
record TV programmes from the additional device.
