This refers to the three primary colours of light, red (R), green (G), and blue (B) and also the method of producing video that uses them. By
dividing the video signal into the three colours for transmission, noise is reduced for even higher quality images.
■ Q Link functions
Q Link offers a range of convenient functions (For further details ➔ page 41). Make sure to connect a fully wired 21-pin Scart cable to the
television if using the Q Link function.
The following systems from other manufacturers have similar function to Q Link from Panasonic. For details, refer to your television’s operating
