Q-Link
Q-Link allows the television to communicate with a compatible VCR or DVD Recorder.
For Q-Link communication to work, the TV must be connected to a recording device with the "Q-Link", "NEXTVIEWLINK",
"DATA LOGIC", "Easy Link", "Megalogic" or "SMARTLINK" logo using a "fully wired" Scart cable between the AV2 /
AV4 terminal of the television and the appropriate terminal on your VCR or DVD Recorder. See page 13 for details of
Q-Link terminal setup. This television does not support any other types of recording control signal.
For connection to the appropriate Scart terminal on the recording device, refer to the device's instruction book.
When using a "NEXTVIEWLINK" device the main features possible are the following:
Preset Download
This allows the programme order from the TV to be downloaded to the recording device, helping to ensure that correct

2. When Auto setup is started from within the Tuning menu. See page 14.
3. Preset download started from the recording device, refer to the device's instruction book.

switch on when you press the DIRECT TV REC button.
If a "Q-Link" device is connected, a message will appear on the TV screen showing what is being recorded,
or if it is not possible to record. Some "Q-Link" compatible devices will only display the message when
on the VCR programme position "0" or in AV mode. Refer to the device's instruction book.
