AV Link Function
If the VCR is connected to the TV via a 21-pin Scart cable,
you can use the [AV LINK] (35) to switch the TV from normal
TV reception over to the video playback channel (AV input)
(and vice versa). In the VCR mode (when the [VCR]
indication in the VCR display is lit), the TV is switched to the
video playback channel (AV input). In the TV mode (when
the [VCR] indication is not lit), the TV is switched to TV
reception.
• When you press the [MENU] (7) to display the menu on
the TV screen, the TV is also automatically switched to the
VCR mode, however, the [VCR] indication does not appear
in this case.
• When you start playback on the VCR, the TV is
automatically switched to the VCR mode. However, during
playback, it is not possible to switch the TV back to the TV
mode.
• If a Pay TV station has been selected on the VCR when
you switch to the TV mode, the picture on the TV is
scrambled when you select a Pay TV station on the TV.
In this case, either switch to the VCR mode or select the AV
input on the TV.
Hint:
• [RGB] means separate Red/Green/Blue colour signals.
If you connect a TV equipped with RGB input capability to the AV1
socket on this VCR, and a decoder equipped with RGB output
capability to the AV2 socket, the TV can receive RGB signal input
from the decoder via the VCR.
