About NexTView Link

AV3
NexTView Link is an "intelligent" link, which can be used to set up channels and as an easy
way to set programmes for recording on a video recorder with the NexTView Link
function or similar (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) from a television already set up.
The video recorder should be connected to the AV1 socket using a Scart AVLink cable.
Important: If you've purchased your video recorder before 1997, it may not support the
record feature.
Setting up channels
The NexTView Link can be used to automatically download the terrestrial and cable
channels already stored in the television to the video recorder.They will be arranged in the
same order on both items of equipment.
Refer to the instructions for your video recorder to find out how this is done.
Setting a programme to record
The NexTView Link function can also be used as an easy way of setting a programme to
record from Program Info on your television (see paragraph "Recording a programme" on
page 21).
