Modes of operation

Video mode

You can operate Loewe video recorders and DVD
players with the video control bars even if they
are hidden. The VCR's must be connected to the
Euro AV sockets (Scart) and logged in under the
"Connections" menu.
Digital Link must be switched on on the Loewe
video recorder. Only then can you use the
control bar. You also need Digital Link for timer
recordings of satellite programs controlled by
the TV set.
You can display up to two control bars but they
are only displayed by logged in VCR's and DVD
players.

The Video menu provides you with options for
timer programming by EPG, teletext or manually.
You can also change or delete timer data.
In the "Connections" menu you can log other AV
equipment on or off and make a "Digital Link
Plus data transfer. This serves to transfer the
transmitter data of the TV set (not satellite
stations) to the Digital Link Plus VCR.
Digital Link Plus VCRs have the possibility for
transferring the station data from the TV set to
the VCR via the Euro-AV cable (not for satellite
stations). Every time you change the station
memory of the TV, you are asked whether you
want to make a data transfer.
The receiver unit of the VCR is always used for
recording with a Digital Link Plus video recorder
(not satellite stations) and the tuner of the TV set
is available for watching TV.
Loewe VCRs also have Digital Link, a system for
controlling Loewe VCRs via the Euro-AV cable.
The TV tuner is used for recording here. If you
have installed your Loewe VCR in a concealed
place, you can operate the Loewe VCR with the
remote control. Operation with the control bar
also works with Digital Link.
Digital Link must be switched on on the
video recorder.
Only use fully wired Euro-AV cables, otherwise
Digital Link or Digital Link Plus will not work.
