Why You Should Connect This G-LINK Cable
The G-LINK cable enables the GUIDE Plus+ system (the on-screen interactive program guide) to work with your
VCR and/or cable box.
Cable Box – If your TV is connected to a cable box you must connect the G-LINK cable to receive TV program
listings for your area, and to tune directly to a channel when the program guide is on your TV screen.
VCR – If your TV is connected to a VCR and you don’t connect the G-LINK cable, one-touch VCR recording
won’t work. The other features of the guide will work properly.
How to Find the Remote Sensor
You have to place the G-LINK wands in front of the remote sensor on the VCR and/or cable box. Some cable
boxes and VCRs have the remote 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 to which you’re attaching the G-LINK cable) so that 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 remote sensor.
Placing the G-LINK Wands
Place the G-LINK wands in front of the remote sensor on your VCR and/or cable box approximately one inch
away from the remote sensor (see instructions below).
