Setup and Connections
Step 3: Connect the G-LINK Cable
The G-LINK cable enables the Guide Plus+ system (the on-screen guide
that lists what shows are on TV) to work with your VCR and/or cable box.
Cable Box – If your TV is connected to a cable box and you don't
connect the G-LINK cable, no channels may be listed in the on-screen
program guide.
VCR – If your TV is connected to a VCR and you don't connect the G-LINK
cable, one-touch recording won't work. The other features of the guide
will work properly.
How to Find the Remote Control Sensor
You have to place the wands on the G-LINK cable in front of the remote
control sensor on the VCR and/or cable box. Some cable boxes and VCRs
have the remote control sensor labeled on the unit. If the remote sensor
isn't labeled on your VCR and/or cable box, you need to use the remote
control that came with the VCR and/or cable box to locate the sensor.
1.
Turn off the VCR and/or cable box.
2.
Hold the remote control (not the one that came with your TV, but
the one that came with the cable box and/or VCR) so it is touching
the front of the component.

3.
Slowly move the remote control across the front of the component
(VCR or cable box) while you press the power button on and off.
You must press and release the power button each time you move
the remote (holding down the button won't work).
4.
When the component turns on, you've located the sensor.
5.
Place the wands of the G-LINK cable underneath your VCR and/or
cable box (see instructions below).
Placing the Wands Under the VCR and/
or Cable Box
Place the wands of the G-LINK cable underneath your VCR and/or cable
box. Place them about one inch away from the remote control sensor.

If you don't have a VCR, just
coil the cable of the extra
G-LINK wand with a twist tie
and leave it behind the TV.

on the back of the TV.
